Default wtb: turbo hot parts or hot and cold - non intercooled

hey guys, i was going to build a truck manifold system, and still am planning on it but wanted to test the waters on buying piping already done. i called and left messages with a few top name companies (no names please) and nobody called me back!

anyhow i just figured it would be wise to investigate this before i go nuts building my own.

does anyone else think i'm crazy for wanting to run methanol inj. instead of an air-air or air-water intercooler?

it's a pt88 turbo in an '02 camaro.

well heres the problem i could do it for you since i have a PTE88 to mock it up with, except the downpipe since our kmembers are probably different.
hard to do it since systems/cars are different and people want different things. also there is alot to change on the car to get it to work like move the radiator.

if your halfway handy and can use or get a welder (tig is preferred but a mig will do if you dont use aluminum) then you can do it, its not easy, but satisfying.

id definatly run an intercooler and some meth on top of that.

IMO, a PT-88 is WAY too big for a stock cube motor...unless you plan on spraying a small shot of juice.

you can get it with a T6 flange, but it comes standard with a T4.
a 346 can push it, just have to spin it a little more.
