My 25.5 Turbo Firebird buildup (lots of photos!) I decided to step things up this winter and build a single turbo iron block setup for my Firebird... the 6 point is in the process of getting upgraded to a 25.5... I will be running a stock style suspension, mini tubbed with 315/60 MT ET Street Radials... The turbo is a custom unit with a 80MM inlet for the class I am running... here are some photos of the buildup as it's coming along

Appreciate it bro. That's some pretty good turn around time too. early May would work out great.. Let me know when and where when it gets closer to that time and I'll be there.
