 Got the exhaust gases to the turbine part of the system tack welded
 together today.
 I will have it professionally welded. I am not good enough to be
 trusted :)

 It takes a long time to order parts and have them shipped from all
 over the US.
 Surprisingly truck exhaust components are not all that available
 locally. Especially
 in the larger sizes 3.5 inch and up.

 The coupling to the turbine was tricky as it was designed to be
 connected directly to
 the output of a turbo charger.

Paul,

Looks like a miniature version of the V1710-127!

Yep.  I would love to get a BSFC of .40.
