I just check his garage and there is no pics of his turbo. So unless he took them down, it is someone elses turbo setup. And its not exist3nce as the pic for his turbo is different from the one Loganator has.

Thumbs up

from my experimenting, i have concluded that drifting has to do with 3 things, throttle control/rear-wheel spinnage, momentum, and a hand brake JUST to start the spin for a rwd vehicle.
with this is mind, its obvious that attempting a so-called "drift" in a fwd car is going to be handled differently. since the whole point of the drift is to keep the car's momentum consistent through a sharp turn to have a good speed to accel out, going into the turn is the trick with fwd's. with a rwd, they do this diffferently. instead of coming in the turn wide, the throw the car in the skid the opposite direction that theyre gonna be drifting into to get that quick and consistent slide. a fwd will come from the outside and into it, then quickly jerk the hand brake while the rear of the car starts feeling lighter and more sideways than you (i feel this vary easily since i've done some weight reduction on the front end of my car and have lighter rims and lowpro tires), then of course you turn the wheel the opposite. and just like a rwd, you have to be consistent with a high rpm and some throttle to keep the momentum going and the front end in line with the back, otherwise you could just spin out and 180, hit go striaght into the curb, or if youre runnin stock, possibly flip .
so like mentioned earlier,the only way to get used it, is simply by doing it more. just becareful. and who cares if youre not going out and getting your d-spec license. screw teh haterz!

uhhh the hand brake thing to get the car to kick out is way basic... is mainly clutch control... if u can have that clutch half way engaged then over power the gear and drop it out u can kick the back end of a rwd out... the other easier (but even worse for u car) thing u can do in a rwd is to shift lock (at almost redline in a gear just down shift very quickly without rev matching) and it will lock ur back wheels for just long enough to kick it out... remember... only a good idea if u have sponsers to pay for new clutches lol, my frien shift locks really well in his Z and he went threw his clutch in no time
