Hello all!

This is my turbo build on my 2003 ECSB s10.

Current specs on the truck

2004 5.3 with a 224/224 114lsa cam 7.4 hardened pushrods dual springs ls7 lifters
ls6 intake
706 heads with arp head bolts
411 pcm
4l80e with stock for the time being
7.5 10 bolt with zexel torsen carrier and 4:10 (it died about 2 weeks ago)
charcoal interior that is MINT
some flashy autometer gauges lol

Plans for this winter

Borg Warner S475 standard cover and cast wheel (for the time being upgrading to a billet wheel next year)
TurboSmart race port 50mm BOV
TurboSmart powergate 60mm wastegate
All stainless steel hot side retaining full exhaust
3200 stall converter and a little shift kit for the 80e
gm 2wd s10 offset 8.5 with 3:42s, auburn posi, 30 spline axles and a perfect launch dif cover
Some more gauges
Traction bars

Nothing huge tonight for progress but a little interior work.

So know one makes a 3 gauge pillar pod for the 2003 s10 interior being the headliner and a and b pillars are different than the 98-02 trucks. So I cut up a glowshift 98-02 3 gauge pillar pod and starting cutting it up to mold it into the factory 2003 a pillar.

Thanks for looking!

i love seeing dimes on here. in for progress. Keep it up man!

I really like what your doing, and plan to do almost the same thing here soon. Can you post up what parts your using for your header, and who you got them from? I guess your using truck accessories? I have Corvette.

Do you know what your truck runs N/A? I have almost the same setup, except with a 60E currently and LS6 intake. On crappy tires 2.0 60', mine ran the best of a 13.10. Curious what your fuel plans are?

Nice build. Do u think downpipe is gonna be tight out the back? Or are u gonna do a fender exit?

Yeah that filter is being criished a bit. On my Blazer I put a 90* elbo off my turbo so the MAF & air filter were down behind the headlight.

Hard to see in this pic, but you get the idea.

it will be a little tight but doable. I will be doing a 4" down pipe with a cut out then step it down to a 3" after the cutout ran into my already existing exhaust.

ok cool. I have a 97 rcsb s10 laying around. the original 2.2 took a dump so It might be a pretty good contender for a new project!! may try a junkyard sloppy mechanic build on it.

Yeah man there you go. Too bad the 97s are the worst to wire up haha.

Prostreet I pieced the kit together I order the flange off of ebay from modern automotive performance and the other metal from ace race parts on line the log is schedule 10 stainless 2" the 90s are long radius schedule 10 1.5".

This is the 2003 only pillar pod finished up.

Waiting on the rest of my metal from ace race parts for the hot side. Then I will get assembling the cold sided then pull the motor to change the oil pan and drill and tap for the oil drain back.

Nice build! Got pictures of the driver side manifold?
