Bought it on ebay a week or 2 ago and wondering if anybody new of these?

Its designed like how 2.216VTurbo(Alan) built his new one, but smaller. In/out on opposite side, one on top and one on the bottom 20"x12" x3.5".

The other thing is the in is 2.5" and the out is 3". Why is that?, it looks like they cut off and then welded a 3" out to it. Why bigger outlet and should I reduce it to 2.5" when I in stall? I like it, but wondering about the 3" outlet.:confused:
Sorry about all the questions!
Curt.:D

pics?

If the turbo outlet is 2" and the TB is 75mm (3"), then the 2.5" inlet and 3" outlet would not be too bad, since you want to gradually step up the flow path. For a 52mm TB, I would put a 2.5" outlet back on the IC, or use the 3" side as in and 2.5" as out if it can package that way?

Well, heck, if it looks like mine, it HASto be good;) Which way do the tubes run, top to bottom (shorter is bettter for flow)or side to side. +1 on the pics...

Would you want to do 3" in and 2.5" out? I honestly don't know anything about air flow, but something in my mind clicks about air moving faster as the path gets smaller, like going from 3" to 2.5"!? If not, what am I thinking of?!:confused:
