    So intercooler + lower static compression = moar boost?

    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

              legacy image

              and kind of what the mega bug catcher looks like, not done yet though..... I love dust

                                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

                                          new turbo showed up from FI

                                          got a new Precision 7875 (78hpsh) uses the 75mm gt42's turbine compared to the 68mm F1-68 i had before in the TC

                                          should still spool nice and fast but open it up quite a bit for power

                                          was torn between a PT88 or the 78 GTS, but i still wanted some decent response so went with the GTS
