My New IS V8 Build
well that picture is just the mechanic holding it in place. its all bolted on now. its a little bit more space than before. the picture makes the space look small. People from the company that does ceramic coating were in today and he said ceramic coating the turbo and radiator will solve cooling issues if there is any so im going that route if there is cooling problems. but seriously the picture makes the space look a lot smaller than what it is
you can buy turbo jackets which would solve any problems..
I realise the turbo was closer in Marcus's original setup, but with the greatest respect to Marcus, that looked pretty tight there too.
The thing with coating/jackets for turbos is that you're going to make them run even hotter then.

Are the jackets also used to reduce turbo laggggg?
Sparkystav but the heats kep inside the turbo not to the outside

steviewevie That's what I mean though, the turbo runs even hotter. So when you turn the engine off the oil cooks inside the turbo for longer etc. I just can't see it as a good thing. I imagine it shortens the life of the turbo. I could be totally wrong of course !
