Angry Bird 2 (The Angrier Bird) GT91 build
Well guys I took the plunge and sold off my procharger to go turbo. Let the critics come out!! Lol..... anyway Im bought a GT91 and will be starting fab work next week... well finishing... I have already started. I decided to make the change after watching too many turbo Ls videos and it didnt help that my can was down because of belt issues after my truck alternator install. I was slimply tired of taking the blower up and down up and down when before I had a procharger a drive belt was a simple 3 min job!! The last straw was i slung the drive belt off and shredded it and that left me stranded one night after work. The procharger went up for sale later that night.....

ya, about those manifolds, if your spending all of this money on a turbo why not just go ahead and buy a good set of forward headers? better to do it right then rush it

Im not saying that all I want is 800-900... I want as much hp as possible! I know that capabilities of that turbo..... Until I get some better heads all I need is about 900 hp. I was thinking about the future.
