The red swirls in the background are a true performance enhancer, the turbo would most likely be a turd without them.

Which reminds me, anyone know where to get a chrome oil pan for the IDI? I need more cheap HP!

No, I hadn't until just now after you posted. I never would have guessed all that precision work just to engineer a turbo for a 1HP Chevy small block. (1HP= 1 Hamster Power).
