N20 to TURBO 2! The fabrication continues! I decided to paint the engine bay after the headers and tubing is complete.
Fuel and Water cell mounted
Rear bulk head
Flaming River rack and heim
Front bumper support
Motor mount guide and support bracket
Wing
As predicted by many people, I am running about a week behind. I hope to be able to start the header and turbo plumbing next week. The APE engine assembly should also start next week so I will post up the progress pics of them as they unfold. My AFR/ET Performance Heads are a work of art! They will be fully assembled by the end of this week. I just need my intake to show up from Scoggin Dickey (APE ordered it 1 month ago) so I can port match it to the heads and Wilson 105mm elbow.

Damn, someone wants to go REAL fast. Kick ***. Soooooo where will the turbo be mounted? Would it just be faster to buy Nasty Perf headers and fab the rest rather than spend a few weeks welding primaries and what-not? Honestly, what turbo is it? PT94?

Who made the rear bulhead? I like the piano hinge. Makes access much easier.

Thanks! KTS Chassis did the bulk head. I have been helping and doing most of the grunt work (anything to help offset the cost) and KTS has been doing the actual fabrication stuff. One week late does not sound like much now but I am really only 3 weeks into this project so at the current pace I will be approx. 1 month off my original plan and will not have any opportunity to test and tune before Thunder! We really have to buckle down and get the ball rolling before it is too late! LOL!

Thanks!
KTS is not doing the headers and plumbing. Performance Fabrication and Engineering is.
I am estimating the weight to be around 3200 with me in it.
