Lagos' ct20b install Options

[lagos]

Here are the pics from the install...

I decided to remove just the turbo and not the entire exhaust manifold, to help avoid any issues with stripped exhaust studs.
I also had a brand new Hose from Hell that has been sitting in my house for months waiting for this day.... and wouldn't you know it, I didn't think of bringing it with me to my friends house where the installation took place. oh well.

Removing the ct26...















Here is an interesting picture of the effects of washer fluid injection over a period of time. the turbo on the left is the new ct20b and the turbo on the right is my ct26. You can clearly see a white precipitate that has formed as a by product of mixing washer fluid into the combustion chamber.
It also looks like there is a bit of an uneven distribution of the washer fluid as cylinders 1 and 2 have a lot more of the white percipitate than cyl 3 and 4.

the quicker spool is because of better / improved / more modern desing of the 20b, think about it as 1st 2nd and 3rd gen 3s, they also revised the turbo and improved its efficiency, it has nothing to do with being ceramic or steel, there are Steel 20b around as well aand they spool just as quick as the ceramic ones.
