Garrett GT-3076R turbos (Stage III upgrade); hot parts were heat coated

Now here is the kit on my car:



Heeeeeeeere's the engine bay, ain't it perty!



He had some custom inlet pipes made to place the filters in the fog light holes, which I think looks bad ***. I am going to have to put something in the hole we cut for the FMIC where my front plate cover used to be. I kind of wish I hadn't hacked it now, but at the same time, it should still help the engine breath more cool air with these hot *** turbos. We are also going to have to get a piece of the inlet hose fabricated to fit around my big Strano front sway bar that I refuse to part with.

Here are the Spek gauges all mounted up in the pillar pod. I got A/F ratio, boost pressure, and fuel pressure.



Here is the eBoost2 boost controller nicely mounted in the center vent.

you going to use those 42lb injectors bro or did you go bigger already?

60 or 72s sound alot better for your setup

I figured since I was going to probably be going a lot faster, I would need to be able to stop a little better too, and since the brakes were starting to get a little worn, I decided to get a new set of pads and rotors. I figured I would just paint the stock calipers red for now to look a little better. I might do a C5 brake conversion someday, but this will probably be good for now. I ended up coming across a good deal on a set of Stoptech zinc coated drilled and slotted rotors and ceramic pads.



They look pretty sweet with my Fikse wheels too.

Definitely man, I already put on a set of flow matched 60 pounders I got on sale from New Era. I have seen a lot of people with turbo setups strech those a long way so I figured they would be plenty for me.

The whole "budget" thing, which was kind of the idea for this project when I first started out, was pretty much thrown right out the window when I decided to switch over to the turbo kit. When you hear that a blower project will run you a minimum of 10k, that is absolutely correct, but I still think I have done pretty good for what all I'm doing here. I think I'm not too far over that line either so I'm not too concerned about it. To give you an idea of what all I've had to get for this project, here is a list of the primary things I have bough over the past few months for this build:

-Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator
-fuel pressure gauges
-lots of braided fuel lines and miscellaneous fittings (which add up the bill quick I must say)
-60 lb. injectors
-FAST fuel rails
-twin Walbro fuel pumps
-TR6 spark plugs
-Taylor high heat plug wires
-Lingenfelter 8 lb. wastegates
-battery relocation kit
-BMR battery relo mount
-alternator relo kit
-new belts
-new tensioner
-B&M trans cooler
-LS6 intake (plus cost of having it painted)
-Stoptech zinc coated drilled/slotted rotors with ceramic pads
-Spec gauges with pillar mounting pod
-boost controller
-air bags for rear springs
-BMR tubular k member with new a-arms
-BMR motor mounts
-2 bar MAP sensor
-Snow Performance methanol kit
-oil breather

I'm sure I'm forgetting some things, but that's most of it.

i never seen this car around memphis, every goto the wtfba.org site

I have been on the site before and I have an account on there, but I usually just stay on this site mostly. I only went to one local West TN F-Body meeting, but it was a few years ago back when I had my blue '01 WS6 and the club had dropped down pretty low in numbers at that time. I will probably be roaming the streets of Memphis a lot more when this project is finished since
I'm gearing everything toward street use. Your car looks very familiar, did I see you up at the Autozone on Summer on Saturday night a few months ago?

BIRDONNOS

yeah that sounds about right, i am setting my car up for the street also since the track closed up.

Nice looking build. Just curious what turbos you went with...they seem to tuck in nicely. Also was curious if you're planning on leaving the fuel regulation routed the way it is in the picture....I'd think you'd be better off pressurizing the rail first, then running it to the regulator, especially at those high power levels. Just an observation.

Looks good!

They are the upgraded Garrett ball bearing GT-3076 turbos, not sure what the exact mm size is on them.

I thought the whole idea of the fuel pressure regulator was to regulate the fuel to the injectors.

I love the Incon kits!

Car is scheduled to be tuned March 4th so hopefully everything will work out smootly and it will be ready for the street that day.
