i guess i might as well introduce myself here
Name is Eugene and im building this badass turbo setup for Sean. we're both extremely excited about this build, its going to rock!

Few pics of the car as it sits.








Just ordered up the materials for hot side piping and in the mean time i got cracking on the Custom Fuel cell thats ~9.5 gal capacity.









The sump will have 2 -10 fittings to feed 2 Bosch 044 pumps.
Tomorrow i'll get started on the Water tank for the A/W IC setup.

I'm hoping for 3500lbs. Has to be 3400 minimum in the class I run in. The only weight mods left for me are REAL expensive so I might not get to them until next year.

They handicap the Fuuuuck outta the EFI turbo cars in my class. On the contrary though the nitrous cars can not use a controller.

You pressure test that tank to 100 PSI, you will blow it up. 1-2 psi tops, even then, itll balloon up and potentially crack.

It just needs a liquid in it to make sure it doesnt leak since in service itll never see pressure.

LOL... 100psi. I think people forget that psi is pounds force / square inch.

BTW: if you do want to test a vessel to 100psi, make sure it is pressurised with water and not air. Otherwise, kiss your family goodbye before you do it...
