LQ4 S480 Build
Nice build... looks like it has been a lot of trial and tribulation, but fun throughout the whole process! I'm going to end up building my turbo setup exactly like yours except I'm going to be running A/C. Gonna try to use Bill's modified truck manifolds to make the kit work around all of the A/C junk, since driving in TX in the summer without it is just brutal

Getting closer just need to finish up a few things and I'll be ready for the track. Still gotta ale a decision on the hood I like this one but for the street I think the SS is the way to go.

Thanks guys I got most done last night just need to do some wiring and I'll fire it up then start working on the meth kit and leash controller
Oh I was disappointed also when it broke. I think I'll just get it running and search for a hood if one pops off I'll switch back. Might even keep both and just swap everything since I have another set of fenders it's a quick switch actually

It's just a black rattle can.
Ed sure can weld that's for sure. I'll be posting some great pics and videos in the batmowheel turbo TA Thread of some fab work we are doing to that car.

With the math it came out to 970hp I was at 20psi and 16° timing with 100 octane in there. This was the gen III rods. This was a calculator but I'm sure is was in the 900 hp range
