Sucks about the block, but your turbo set up looks good. I was thinking of doing the same thing. I was wondering how you made your exhaust exit the turbo? Did you justY it back out after the turbo, back out into duals or just run a large diameter pipe? I just want one turbo, something like yours (I will do it myself as well) Thanks

my original idea was a drag setup,exhaust exiting in front of the front tire , through the fender. that lasted about 50 miles when my rim turned black and burnt my ground effect.so i ran a single 3" pipe up over the front tire and down under the carjust behind the k member and a bullit muffler dumped in front of the axle. the turbo absorbs some noise.so im not going to run mufflers.im also going to move the turbo in closer to the engine , so i can drive in the rain if i have to. my single 3" exhaust from the turbo will go down the pass side like a header would then split into 2 - 2 1/2 pipes at the tranny.

Is 3 inch big enough? Also, what diameter is your crossover to your turbo?

2 1/2 from headers merge into 3" before turbo. 3" is the biggest i could fit on the flange i made
