Default Some pics of my rear mounted turbo build for my RX8
Almost a year ago I decided that I wanted to boost my RX-8 and I wanted not only a boosted car but for it to look very stock that you couldn't tell that it was boosted till I got on the gas. After several months of researching and getting parts and getting all the fabrication done, it is almost completed.

The guy to thank for this is Dave at a local speed shop in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. I wanted the turbo to be a rear mount and I wanted it to have it's own oiling system mainly because I didn't want to tear into the engine just yet seeing that it is in pristine condition and the stock oil pump is crap above 9k and I didn't want the extra stress of pushing oil that far back. I wanted to have just the basic of gauges in the car but hidden to keep that stock look. Even when you pop the hood and look in the engine bay it looks like nothing was done to the car.

The charging tube is not in these pics but I will get some of it also. It is all back together now and just waiting to finish tuning. I will have some engine pics here in a few days. I don't have any here on my cpu and will take some more and post if anyone is interested. Please let me know what you think. This has been a very long project for me and very near and dear to my heart. I am just waiting for when I get this on the road.
