    Yea same here...thats bull crap. Heads up or go home! :2thumbs:

    yep with the new T61s shes running pretty good :chacha: . Before I was at the top of 4th with the 3.73s and the 57 trims. car was nosing over HARD 150' from the end (valve float). Still trapped 122 though. Now it just pulls to the limiter, and I know id be all over it before the end LOL. So we just threw the stock 3.27s back in to give me some breathing room :D

    Almost finished product.I love the fact I get to keep my Bassani X-pipe and Flowmaster cat back.And nothing hangs lower than what it did before the turbo kit was installed.

    Great work. Looks clean! I like the way you utilized the stock manifolds and kept all your accessories. What diameter hotside pipes did you use? And I'm assuming thats a T70 with the T4 flange. Is that correct? Nice job definitely quality work.

    sounds great. Feel like answering a few more questions?...lol. Where did you put the o2's? Is that a stock maf? What made you decide to use a pass through instead of the more common blow through? I'm thinking about doing the same and using a mafia. Did you have to remake any of your ac lines? Lastly did you support the turbo with anything other than the piping running to it? And lastly do you have any pics of the hotside merge. I'd really like to see how you engineered it. I know they're trivial questions but those seem to be the biggest pains for me...lol

    Thanks

    1.O2's are in the stock location (If it aint broke don't fix it :) )
    2.The Maf is off a 2003 cobra
    3.Draw thru is better for the street and easier when using the stock ecu (This is my opinion only take it for what its worth.This is also my 3rd turbostang.I claim to know nothing just what works on my cars only)
    4.1 A/C line has to be remade no big deal just a 90 degree bend taken out.(Dumb design to begin with if u ask me but its begining to cool off here so no big deal as of now)
    5.From past life lessons this was kind of overkill on the turbo brace.There is currently 3 turbo braces and 2 downpipe braces.Kind of overkill but u learn from your mistakes.Two braces actually brace of the bottom of each side of the block.
    I hope this helps as far as merge pics and brace pics

    I'm not sure if you can see the braces but this is the only pic I have
