Finally finished my project....
http://www.forcefedfab.com/images/PI...a/turbota.html
It runs insane. Im still testing it out as I go...1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th gear traction limited, at 4 psi. First night out we had it at 12 psi and it was insane, but too much without doing some tuning first.
I will be having it on a wideband to make sure whats going on with the fueling. AFter some bigger injectors and tuning the boost will go up.

I agree.. great work man! Now I am really jealous!
The HP kit has the turbo where yours is... definitely a good spot, allows for good oil return flow, and room for some growth.
I see you put a stress relief in there for expansion and such... I think I should have as well.
Where did you get your silicone?
Thanks,

I have pics of the IC piping but I don't see how it will help you in anyway being that where my compressor discharge is, differs from yours so it would be completely different. If you don't have any way to build this kind of piping I am willing to help out but you gonna have to come to Houston
I don't have any good ones from underneath, I did it all with the car on jackstands, so the camera doesn't get very good shots at the distance it could get. I'll try to get it on a lift and get a good shot.

Setup looks nice, my FMIC is routed similarly for my supercharged setup and it works great.

The downpipe is going straight down to the bottom of the car, it runs underneatht he K-member, as much as people raise their eyebrows at this, I have run this setup on many cars with great success. Some even lowered.

I plan on producing the kits for those who are interested. I will need to get some more results from my prototype first however.
BTW the turbo is a "large" frame T72. Its a custom assembly by my suppliers.

I got all my silicone connectors and such from one of my suppliers. If you are looking for a great selection I have had good luck with www.atpturbo.com in the past.
