    I've bust two rotaries now, and although the single turbo was great for drag racing, it was a bit laggy for the drifting, so i'm going v8[IMG][/IMG]

    I'm putting an eaton M122 supercharger on her, I modified the original inlet manifold in order to mount the supecharger on it as well as directing the air to the intercooler and then back into the manifold

    [IMG][/IMG]

    i cut the underside of the manifold to join all the ports an create an inlet

    [IMG][/IMG]

    i blocked off the upper part of the manifold[IMG]

    clatty i know, but it was my first bit of tig welding!
