s366 4.8 Camaro 6speed, Steven Sigmon
One leaves and another comes in. Steven Sigmon, a friend here in Statesville brought us his car to get the merge pipe fabbed in and turbo mounted and braced. Turbo is going in the battery location. Steven says he will be doing the cold pipes and the downpipe so our only responsibility now is to fab the merge pipes and mount the wastegate and turbo.
This should be a fun street car. S366 Borg Warner from Forced Inductions T4 with .91ar. Will be running a JGS wastegate. He is swapping the ls1 for a 4.8 and putting his ls6 heads on the 4.8 as well as swapping the cam out.
Frame we notched so the turbo could come closer toward engine. Notched part will be filled in with a stronger piece of steel.

Its pretty compact for a Borg but it should spool fast for some street/track fun. Customer isn't looking for big power, YET lol. Nobody ever is till they get a taste.

He plans to stay around the 550 range for now. He's gonna tune on 10psi. Just on pump gas and no meth for now. He will add meth later and clamp that gate shut I been telling him lol. Boost is an addiction.

That looks really good man. I know there is obviously a size difference between a S300 and S400, but do you think this same setup would have worked with your S475? I am swapping to a S480 and want to put it in the battery tray. Would a 4" downpipe run through the k-member and be able to sneak by the hot pipes? I have a turbo k so have a lot of room.

He has ordered his cold piping which he will be doing his self along with his downpipe which will be bumper exit on the drivers side. Here are the final pictures from last night.
