Yes, Micahwc, that is my $100 aluminum fuel cell I had welded up to replace the rusted-out 11 gallon original. They didn't make stainless steel kegs back then and it doesn't have any baffles.

Thanks for the ideas for turbos. Here is a website that I found from Topend Performance.

Turbonetics Turbochargers and Wastegates, Water Injection, and Intercoolers

and their turbo sizing chart.

It at least gives me an idea of what i'm looking for, something like a T04e or b? I've got a lot of learning to do, I never had any idea this would be so complicated. So, are those Supra turbos and good or do you guys all hate them?

I've also found quite a few places that sell the flanges, elbos, and merge collectors I will need, so that is a nice surprise.

Too bad you can't mount a turbocharger in the vertical position.
