Sounds awesome!

I'm just curious, since you moved your throttle body position, did you have to do anything with the cable?

Thanks. I had the block already done, and I did alot of horsetrading, so I'm not too sure on the cost. The BOV is a Tial Q

I had to put a longer throttle cable in becuase of the intake being so tall, but changing the angle didn't affect it.

He Already said the Turbo's are 62mm Precision 6265's and that his goal was 750whp

Congrats on the build man. One of the cleanest setups I've seen. Sounds wicked too. Very nice work

I guess it's a normal bov. I don't see any way to make it a suge BOV. It just goes to atmosphere. A surge would have to have a nipple or flange that you can attach a pipe to.

Almost dyno time guys!!! I'm really excited to get on the rollers and get this bad boy tweaked in! I need to send a big Thanks to Mike at Rapid Motorsports for hooking me up with a spot on startup tune. He has went out of his way to help me out so far! I was playing around with the trans brake today on the lift and it built 5psi @ 3k not even at full throttle! She's going to be a quick spooler, which is exactly what I wanted!

Now I just need to get rid of some of this snow! I'm itchin to go for a romp.

The passenger valve cover has a baffled breather in it also.
