If only someone would make a plastic version of the turbo so a guy could hold it in various locations. :-)
I'm sure you will figure it out. I look forward to following along.

What did you guys use to suspend them?
Here is my "helping hands" setup I used when trying various orientations for turbo placement.
Ron, I love your way with words:

So it's been a while since I've updated any progress on the car but I have finished up the whole hotside minus wastegates which I'm now going twin gates as opposed to my original plan of 1 60mm. Also changed my plans on the heads
Turbo mount
Mocking up hotside
PRC 2.5 6.0 heads
I just wanna make everyone aware that this is a first attempt at fabing a turbo kit for me and my buddy, with that being said don't bash us too hard.
