I get the feeling that turbo will be slightly out of balance with those bits randomly spot welded onto the impeller..... Should last all of 3 minutes at idle.

Wtf?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Click on the link and take a look at the throttle body welded to the downpipe!!!!

Surely that has to be a wind up.

If not, then I am just in total awe of that setup. I'm lost for words.

It must have taken them ages to make up and bodge all the rubbish welding etc.

It's going to take them even longer to actually do some sort of mechanical engineering course so they can work out -
1) Why it doesn't work
2) Why it all blew up
3) How to do it properly.

There is a technical term we used to use for welding looking like this. "Pigeon S h 1 t".

Welding with no comitment. Too much starting and stopping so getting splattering. A nice weld comes from slow continous moving. Mine looks like his

Absolutely cracking stuff, indeed the screamer pipe is a classic.

And the Gobby **** welds are just ******* HILARIOUS! My 5 year can weld better than that.
