I'd assume you'll be running a stand alone.
Custom or stock LS6 type intake?
Any specs on the engine? O-ringed, studded?
Any guess to the final output range when it's all done?

Probably the best setup I've seen so far, even tops Harlan's twin turbos which I didn't think was possible

Beautiful!

What kind of output are you guys looking for? Did you consider doing an water/air intercooler? What about alcohol injection to push the boost even higher on lower octane? Are you doing your own tuning? What compression are you at?

We'll have to compare notes (and 1/4 mile times) when both our projects are done!

We will be running FAST or GEN7 for sure. We did all the fabricating in house, and we will also be doing the tuning.

We haven't decided yet on a sheet metal intake or FAST. The motor is studded, but no o-rings.

Not sure on the power, but the turbo will support BIG power.

We considered air/water intercooler, but we are going air/air for now.

I think we calculated the compression at 8.8:1.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

Tom

Umm... wow. I'm stunned. That is just an awesome looking setup and I really like the work on the headers instead of stock manifolds. I cant wait for installed pics, testing, and soundclips.

That is amazing. Did you have to tilt the radiator forward? If so how far?
