Lmao, thats how it starts man.
Look at me, Ive already owned two turbo kits, two motors, just redid my rear suspension last night. Hell I havent even gotten to drive my **** yet.
Finish one thing at a time.

Its about time Jay. I want to go fast lol
Its going to be a few days before I get any work done on the turbo kit. I'm having the core support replaced so everything fits nice and neat. Im also looking into a tubular front bumper support for my room/less weight

Looking at the tubular front support, it looks pretty easy to make. The main thing is just having the appropriate length. Also seems like if you needed more airflow you could cut out the bumper some like I see on a bunch of Mustangs to allow more air to the radiator.

I went ahead and bought the tubular bumper support and radiator support. While the core support is getting swapped I might as well do it all.
I built a bracket to mount the turbo on the frame rail.
This was all just mock up on the old core support. I fugured if I screw up its getting cut out anyway. Once I get the car back I'll start mounting everything and working on the merger.
