LS/Wagon Turbo build - SNL Performance So after a week of talking and squeezing this sleeper in the schedule we started fabbing the turbo kit up! The turbo was mounted and most of the material was delivered for our week build time, which we made!
Let us know what you think.
T6 turbo
Factory flipped manifolds (1 flanged, 1 welded v-band)
5" down pipe reduced to 4"
2.5" mid pipes
3" intercooler pipe
twin 38mm Tial wastegates
Tial blow off valve

My mom had a '78 Fairmont wagon that same color with the 302. I remember it beat my uncles new Delorean in 1983 and he pretty much parked the car after the wagon waxed it.
Cool project!
The wheels aren't too sleeper though

Thank you very much!
Jdoisher did the build of the Wagon, and placed the turbo where he wanted. We built the missing parts from the manifolds to the turbo, exhaust (side exit) and all the intercooler pipes
We are looking for our next project....

Awesome car and great work TS! I'll be watching this build. I love these wagons. My family had a Fairmont and a Mercury Marquis. I've always wanted a Foxbody wagon to build.
