Default Update!!! S480, glide, lil jon cam, race gas

Figure I would start a thread on my build. As far as motor is just goin with a stock 5.3 bottom end minus cam and rod bolts, fuel system is 2 intank pumps with -10 feed and -8 return. Been working on the turbo kit every couple days for about to weeks and this I what we got so far.

They look like truck manifolds with the 3 bolt flange cut off and vbands welded on. This is how we did my buddy's RX7 too.

The manifolds are truck manifolds with vbands stick welded on them, for the pump havent really looked to much into it yet just really pushing to get all the turbo kit and the supports for the a2w cooler done.

interesting approach to the down pipe, no worries about hitting the tires on decel/braking or coming off a hard launch? I know my formula left a few rub marks in the inner fender plastics from the tires coming off the line.

i wanted it to run over the lower a-arm but 4in was just a little to tight, while we are making it we have the tire fully compressed into the fender it run between inner side of the tire. Really i took the idea from tricked out toys ta build.

I might be wrong but Im pretty sure the wastgate placement needs to be as close to the turbo as possible? Might want to check into that. Nice build.
