Default progress pics on the small turbo build

Being bored here lately and getting ready to order my tubing for my headers and intercooler I decided to mount the turbos. I even had a little intercooler piping to run.

After it starts the first time and I get the thing tuned in, I will pull the motor and the whole car is getting repainted.

That is actually a 6.0 lq4 motor with the aluminum heads. I plan on just getting this system done and driving the car for awhile. I will be using stock everything, except a custom grind cam. Then I will be buying a GT42 turbo and doing a single set-up with the serious stuff inside the motor, JE, H-beams, another turbo grind cam. I will be using big stuff 3 engine management , the car already has a th400 tranny, moser 9", cage. It just needs the go power now.
