Default Stenod Performance Single Turbo Project Update Pics

No Turbo yet but making room for it....
Recieved some more pictures of the Single Turbo Setup Stenod Performance is building for me.
Had to ditch the BMR Tubular K-Member for an AJE piece so we can run a 4" downpipe and AJE's Lower A-Arms.

Standing the radiator straight up and ditching the stocker for a Custom Griffin with a single 16" SPAL Fan...... Standing it straight up free's some more room for the turbo.

Cutting the front support.







K-Member w/out motor mounts..... ALOT of Room.


Should have some more pics by the end of the week.... right Joe
Thanks Joe......Thanks Kevin for taking the time to take the pics and send them my way.

Kyle

are you using solid motor mounts?

dont know why you gave up on the bmr, im pretty sure you can stuff a 4" in her, even with stock or poly mounts.

Looks great Kyle, can you get the PN for that radiator? I'd like to do that to my car. Cutting and welding is no problem here.

That custom radiator support is quickly becoming Stenod's trademark, just about every F-body I've seen in there (including mine ) has that done.

Looks great, Joe's a good guy to do business with.
