So with a single turbo system like you've shown, do you pipe the exhaust from all 8 cylinders around & over to the 1 turbo? Or do you just feed from the left (passenger) side? I don't think that's possible, but need to ask

I/C=299.99
turbo, wastegate, bov=400ish
injector,lmaf, fuel pump=300(inj and maf used)
chip tuning=550
piping= 200+some change
gauges and a pillar 125ish
k-member=175 used

I cant remember EVERYTHING off the top of my head but i will say this. everything is rock solid, brand new and reliable and it was less than a new blower and makes more power. the final numbers will be finished tomorro. I ran stock headers facing down and ran the piping under the car to the fender on the turbo. this is the first kit we did tucked under the fender.

When i see we, it was me and 3 other buddies. in 3-4 day we did full turbo kit with I/C , 3.55 gears(had 4.10) race studs and axles, boost gauge and a/f gauge and shift light. It was a long weekend. I used Qa1 k member as well. Al in all great kit. i dont think we will make them and sell them because its hard to fabricate all of it paint the piping ext. Any more Qs just ask

Funny you bring it up because when we put the stock honey comb grill you cant really see the bov. And the location of the bov makes it sound sexy. Hopefully i can get a video up tomoro!!!!! The reason for uing stock manifolds is because when running a turbo its all about pressure. And since im on the stock motor, you want more power across the band and not peak hp. So the small diameter headers help boost the turbo faster. And what good about the turbo is it dosnt run of accessories like a blower and all you need to up the boost is turn the *** instead of installing another pullley.



PS:::: all yall that said turbos are ssssoooooo expensive and blablabla.....were wrong if you no what your doing

Thats nasty man. You should REALLY think about making those. Do it. I'd buy one for $3000-$4000.

Selling those for 4k and and including the turbo,piping, blow off valve, I/C, gauges and a pillar. Thats a damn $2k profit. Seriously, think about it. I've got a forged shortblock, just let me swap out my pistons and fuel system, and I'll be your test vehicle for a 700rwhp turbo kit. lol
