Title: Chocolate Turbo kit
Post by: lingenfelter on November 22, 2012, 02:41:10 pm: Hi everybody.
A s far as i am concerned i don't remember if i have already introduced myself :rolleye:
My name is Dimitris and i'm from Greece.
I would like to share a kind of my work with you.
Since i own a pastry shop and i'm mad about cars and tuning, i tried to create something similar.

A Turbo kit full made of chocolate!

I started with the manifold, then i made the turbocharger and in the end i istalled an external wastegate.
My next move is an air induction system an of course a downpipe.
I also plan to creat an engine (block) in the end in order to finish my project.
There are some photos here:
