Ok onto the compressor side, this bit is a little easier as you all know you just use the matching compressor housing. Shown here along with the intake elbow to suit the Subaru Liberty inlet system.



Now that cant be used as is because the elbow can only face 2 ways.
On a MX6 that would be straight into the radiator or back toward the engine.

So I cut the end off the elbow and had it welded onto the housing by the welding supervisor, he didn't have a TIG setup on hand so he MIG welded it with an ARGON sheild gas, as shown here.


Not as pretty as TIG but its not coming off in a hurry!
