I did not have the master power when the mock up was going on.... Even though I do have this turbo in my garage but that makes the budget go up up up......

The Turbonetics T78 is one of mine I had laying around I am using for mockup because like the Gooster said he left his Master Power at home. Switched to a C6 vette manifold on the pass side so the turbo could sit back a little further.

Figured it was a vette mani just wanted to double check. Is the newer placement do to air filter placement? How will it clear the fenders when installed? Just getting a few ideas before i make my final decision on which way im going.
