just bored throwing out a couple ideas something to talk about or think on.
was looking at the down pipe on a stock 2g 420a and the 2 bolts down low that mount the pipe would be perfect for a small off manifold turbo, some mounts could easily be fabed and its still high enough to be protected. radiator and front end could be adjust to make more space most likely. down pipe would be a cinch since you would only have to go a few inches for the curve, could cut and weld on a flange on an aftermarket front pipe frome the turbo. my though is use an oil cooler and another metal P/S reservoir and put a P/s pump where the A/C is using a similar sized pulley for a standalone oil system. a lot of people worry about the oil pressure but my thought is jhave the pump push the oil into the cooler then to the res to "fall" back down into the turbo thus eliminating problems with oil getting pushed out seals.(would also use some kind of pressure regulator.)
just thinking about the best junkyard build, eclipse is pretty cool i could build some pretty cool stuff with all the interchangeable parts and pieces. just thinking about this equal length header i got at the junkyard for 10$ and how i could mod it to accept turbo. and how common and cheap these are anyways.
hell not that i think about it i wonder if the A/C itself could be modded for the standalone oil sysyem cause the A/C clutch could be used to monitor the oil pressure.
