That is sweet. Looks like a handfull going down the track. I think my uncle still has a 430 on his tree farm. I know I've got a stock SD turbo in the garage. Maybe I could spool it with a Jetta turbo.

That thing is pretty sweet its amazing what you can do with a little time, knowledge, and some fab skills. There is a guy on a John Deere tractor forum that I belong to that turbo charged his John Deere 332 diesel lawn tractor and he used a small turbo off of a John Deere skid steer and made his own intake.
