        should make alot more power at the same boost, or atleast put it to the ground with the good converter now

        but yeah will be able to run as much boost as that little turbo will support anyway

        Got my trans from Josh at Kentucky Turbo.... he had it built for his 1000hp build but decided to go 4l80 instead

        it is fresh with good stuff and a brake, I shouldn't have to worry about breaking it anytime soon

        the ratio of low gear should really help me with traction, and let the engine load up better in my light car

        nice and light too 🙂

              Ok now i realize 98% of you guys will hate this, really i do, so it is alright to bash 😉

              i just get carried away when i start messing with aluminum because it is so fun, and i had a big hole already

              I need to do some trimming yet, and i will probably paint it all black

                  k got my supplies for plumbing the coolant, assholes sent me red/blue instead of black like i ordered. It is Earl's fittings and pro-lite hose

                  If i did it again i would have gone -16, i didn't realize how big -20 actually was, and -16 fittings/hose is alot cheaper/abundant

                  just the straight hose ends are over 50 bucks a piece for that size

                  also adding a thermostat, it is an inline meziere housing. Doing this just to give the car a chance to warm up quicker, and to slow the coolant flow down some for better heat transfer in the radiator

                  and yes i did cut out my fenders, I plan to add a dump right off the turbo and out the front fender with an electric cutout, and this gives me the room to do it

                                    8pt is only good to 10.0 and or 135mph. 10pt it and be done.

                                      yeah i dont want to tear my dash apart and do the cross bar because i am lazy

                                      was bored so i built a heat shield for the turbine housing out of some aluminum scraps

                                      turned out better than i thought it would, looks nice

                                      and yes i know the retainers go underneath not on top, lol
