Daston Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Hi guys My old man found his old polishing kit and has passed it onto me. First thing I wish to do is polish my turbo (THE CAR ONE damn your dirty minds). However how do I take the intake off the compressor is it just a case of undoing these bolts?

Kranz Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 1) Undo the bolts 2) Take it off Simple! Doesn't matter which direction its pointing when you put it back on as you'll probably have to realign it anyway to point where you want it to go. Don't forget a bit of locktite on the bolts whan you put it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colsoop Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Cheers will give it a go tonight. Oh will the housing be made of steel? The housing will be made of cast aluminium i expect. If you want some advice send me an e mail or pm and i will try to help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranz Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 The compressor housing is aluminium alloy. The turbine housing is cast iron. You can polish them both, but the turbine will turn blue/black straight away with the heat and will take a LONG time to get smooth.... would look better than the cast finish though!
