Started my turbo build! PICS!!
I think thats about all ive done only thing i realy got left to do is finish plumbing the cold side, run the fuel line from front to back, and then start tuning. If anyone sees something i should change right off the bat please let me know, the motor mounts are polyurethane and the power steering hoses im having made so i can run them different. Im also not putting the alt. up top because to me that just doesnt look very good, im not running a/c so Im just going to have me a bracket made and put the alternator where the a/c goes. here is some pics of the build:

Is there a reason why you went with A1000 instead of dual walbros? From what I've witnessed those A1000's are not designed for a long continuous run like in a daily driver/street car,(it's more designed for a race/drag car that is not being run for hours continuously) they tend to overheat and eventually breaks down. Unless, they re-designed them. Anyway, your build is looking good and good luck!

It's not really a question of wether the A1000 could support the hp your combo could produce, co'z it will, but it's the capabilty of it to be run on a street/daily driven application, maybe Dan95z28's suggestion is what you would need to address it's longevity issue.



, im est. somewhere +/- 3500 not including the short block
