Default New turbos and headers Pics added!!

Dropped of car today at Speed Inc for new turbos (billet 76mm) and new stainless headers. Also to fab up a bracket for my new trans ice cooler. More power is needed to run in the drag radial class. Time to break the 7.40 and go into the .20's

We need to be ready for Atlanta in 2.5 weeks!!

Just got the motor back from LME for a freshen up and a Jesel belt drive.

Pics in post #29

Hey, at least you can afford one. I couldn't even buy a vowel in the word "Marcella" LOL!

It would take me 6 months to save up to buy one. By my previous statement you can tell I'm not a single man like I used to be. Spending a week's paycheck all on performance parts and surviving on bologna and cereal. Can't do that anymore.
