thank you man, appreciate it. I've been wanting to do the black for a while, just never had the ***** or time. but, with the rest of the car,and the things added, i think, hope it will blend well.

right now, i still have the 67's but there coated completely now. i have two garrett 72mm turbos that miketurbo isoffering to me, i have one in the back of my truck to mock
but I'm not sure yet honestly, may just use the precisions. i think, think, 76mm turbos will work but, that depends on turbo housing i guess. let you know when i try the 72's how it fits.

I'm hoping the car will be done in less than a month
I went with ST80 turbo for my 347ci but next year I'm going with
370-390ci T4 91mm looking for 1000+rwhp but for now 800-850rwhp will do.

thanks man. thin wall for the turbo manifolds? I honestly cant think of how thick they are right now but, they're not super thin... those are mild steel, original PTK. lemme know if u mean something else.

No, custom build but similer to Hinson's.
I wanted to go with Hinson but you can't fit anything bigger than 78 with that kit..

So I'm building my own kit I can fit T4 91mm with the kit I'm making.

Sweet. I remember when I talked to Brian(hinson) a year or two back he said a 76mm at that point was the max, with hood notching. Something I was willing to do but, I too wanted something bigger if I was going with a single.

Very cool, make sure you post up some build pics when done. I see you changed location/tilt of radiator,...cool, I think when we do Z07 joshs blue car we'll end up laying it flat since we'll need all the room we can get.
