    What's up guys? Well here I am again changing everything around ! :stupid:

    My car didn't come out at all this yr due to a bent rod and unforeseen medical problem.

    last yr with a 331,c4, and twin t66's it made 903rwhp running out of injector!

    Here is a pic of my old set-up and my car. Really dirty first time seeing daylight all yr!

    With the hotside i went with a cg fabrication t6 set up. Highly recommend
    11 days for him to build it and have it at my door. Awesome welds and good thick material,
    mild steel. I was going to build my own but time is scarce right now.

    the dp is huge lol! Thats my fist inside it and i wear a xl glove so i have big hands!

    I'm going to weld on my wastegate flange(my choice wasn't sure where i wanted it) and then send it out to be coated!

    I will take pics of my air to water and post them!
    It's a reichard racing the cube intercooler!

    http://www.reichardracing.com/intercoolers.php

    after i have the intercooler in the car i'm going to start building the piping.
    I'm going to order my ice/water tank this week coming up. It's a 7.5 gal with a rule 300 pump!

    I also purchased rps firewall flanges! Very nice pieces!

    i have a set of scott rod inner fender panels ordered to smooth the the engine bay.
    Lots of wholes from the twin set up. Once i get them in i will put up some progress pics :2thumbs:

    I cut off my lower rad support and i'm going in a little to bend up some chro moly to put in it's place,
    i'm putting a custom radiator in to have it sit inside the rad support and a little more towards the front of the car!

    Also i'm going to install a dummy engine tomorrow and install the turbo kit so i can fab up a turbo support!

    I'm ordering a tight lash solid roller cam in the next week or so. I don't have the block yet so no rush!

    Very different setup then the last one. Hotside looks good. That is a fast turnaround too. Good luck with the build.

    I would really like to see how that turbo looks in the engine bay. What are you going to do for the exhaust?
