Do you guys see anyway to maintain the A/C? From the pics it looks next to impossible to do so. Personally I would very much like to keep my air.

Any concern melting the steering rack boots?

You may have mentioned that, but are you rebuilding the engine internally for high boost. How much is your target RWHP and boost level.

Great job, GMR Speed.

I would be more apt to buy hot parts than the entire kit. Everyone has their own preferences for turbos and such. Also some of us have oddball combo's that would not be well suited to a "one size fits all" kit.

Great job, GMR Speed.

They started out with a bare 6.0L block and built it up with all forged internals and ARP hardware (364ci) so it should handle high boost no problem. Probably around 15-16psi on pump in the end after tuning...

Here are some pics with the cradle and engine in the car. Fits very nice in the engine bay. The turbos are T-61 with a 70a/r S-compressor cover, with 4" in and 2 1/2" out. Theres going to be a FMIC with the kit too.

SEXY!!!! So for the FMIC you said 2 in 1 out, you going to have the exit on top or on one of the sides? I've always liked the look of a top exit going straight into the tb.

But it looks hawt and the price is amazing!

Yeah they are T-61s with the s-compresser housing. I dont know exactly what size there setup used. See if well hit the 850+ range on pump gas. Would be nice.

That was the downside to the incon/ CAS twin kits. They used an exotic 28series turbo about the size of a baseball. The CAS i think used a hybrid t3/t4. With a full T4 turbo(s) we've got alot of room to grow.
