Top work. Big car, big turboz!

As per your other threads, any chance of how you did the oil return?

[jzk25]

The oil return is bits of the old twins returns cut and welded to suit, using one of the original rubber joiners to the front oil return fitting. The rear turbo return fitting has been tapped to 18x1.5 and an o2 sensor bung used to seal it.

There is no easy way to do them, I have tried a few ways and piecing it together to suit the shape of whatever sump and manifold/turbo it has is the only way.

Actually Masterpower have a pretty good reputation.

Hmm weird, 3 cars I know of personally ran those exact same turbo's but didn't live to see a year old?

Are you sure you're thinking of Masterpower (Brazilian) and not the cheap(er) Chinese ripoffs?

[Pimpin_1JZ]

I didn't really know there was different ones, I just know they had masterpower written on them and were t70's. They may have been?

This is a Brazilian Masterpower. It came with brochures about the company that shows there factory with CNC machines everywhere and a big spiel about quality assurrance etc.
I think the days of rubbish turbos are over now as noone will buy them if they have a reputation for failure. These things are apparently widely used in the US by dudes with V8's and JZ's and while it is hardly state of the art in design it still works well, mainly because it is just big

Stints is thinking of running the 2JMX73 at the drags this week if they are on, might see if Mark wants to go as well.
