new pics of twin turbo setup here are some updated pics of my new setup, almost done, just have to do the cold side from FMIC to TB, and then mount the wastegates, everything else is pretty much done. ...i also made a new lower radiator/FMIC mount, which is completely bolt in so it can be removed out the bottom with the radiator, it bolts the the frame rail with 2 bolts/side, and the two bolts to the bottom of the hood latch, also bolts to the bottom of the intercooler, and the FMIC acutally is somewhat structural since the top of it is bolted to the headlight brackets

master power T-70's, headers will be coated, downpipes wrapped, and plugs will require removal of turbos and downpipes, but the headers can stay on, not that big a deal really
ported lt1 intake, just powdercoated, dual intank walbros, -10 feed line, -6 return line.
no wideband yet, just narrowband on my megasquirt II engine managment computer.
goals = first 6 speed in the 8's
BTW, whats wrong with master power turbos?

You setup looks nice. I'm glad to see a six speed with track goals. Most guys ususally go with an auto to set records and what not. Good luck with your goal!

As stated by Will, there is nothing wrong with Master power turbos. They work great and are very good on the wallet!! I've run two different MP T-70's on two different set-ups with no problems what-so-ever!!!
Very nice set-up!!! Good luck getting into the 8's! It should make enough power.
Later,
Dave

The real Masterpower turbos are good low $ units.

Nice looking setup.
I have a couple questions for you... What size turbine a/r did you get? What are you expecting to see for lag and spool time? Tango has me thinking about using these turbos for my 427 project. Also, how long did it take to get the turbos from the time you ordered them? What about the collectors and flanges, where did you get them?
Nice fab work bro. 8's? Wow, that would be impressive with a M6!
BTW, you might want to consider relocating the air filters to the other side of the radiator if you have the room... they're going to be breathing hot air where they're sitting now.
