As most of you know I have a beetle with a 1.8 8v golf engine

So I decided to turbo charge it so I got hold of a 1.9 Polo TDI turbo I don’t know what size it is but I estimate that it’s a T2?

Its gong to be a blow through system , the charge is going to blow into a 36DRLA carburetor that’s turbo prepped
The biggest challenge I had to face was creating an inlet manifold to accommodate the DRLA , so I got 12mil thick aluminum plate and fabricated a flange and some 38 mil tubing to feed the carb into the inlet and got it all welded up.

Space is an issue the throttle wheel needed some space so I cut out a little chunk out the bug
