Cleaning Turbo

hey everyone,

I have a MM Greddy Turbo kit laying in my garage and will be installing it in a few weeks. She needs to be cleaned up and I was wondering if anyone had suggestions on cleaning/polishing her up and what works best? Thanks

you could polish the intake and maybe glassbead it, instead of sandblasting which takes out too much material, make sure to cover areas you don't want to sandblast

sorry i should have been more specific i just need to shine up the pipes, the turbo its self is in top shape. Really i'm just looking for what product others may have used to polish up the pipes.

White Diamond Metal Polish, best stuff I've found pretty expensive at $15 a Bottle but a little bit goes a long way, Here's a link you should be able to get it at any auto parts store though. http://www.whitediamondamerica.com/p...p/polish01.htm

Check out some reviews and get it, you won't be disappointed with the results
