Twin turbo pics! I am finally making some time to finish my car next week and though i would post up some pics of what i have finished already. For those of you wondering how low the pipes are, they are about 1/2-3/4" lower than the factory k member was (BMR tubular now).
I just need to finish up my fuel system, oil return and intercooler cooling system (air to water). The car has 2 60-1s, custom air to waters with bell cores, tial wastegates and 2 RS BOVs.
I am going to use a tilton oil pump for the return which is dumping into a custom sump. The intercoolers are using a mezier single in dual out pump and the water tank is going to be a converted front bumper rebar in aluminum.
I was going to use an aremotive a1000 but i changed my mind and went with a bosch motorsports pump instead.
Let me know what you think!

i remember seeing one similar to that about a year ago on here.
I would but hump hoses on the end of the turbo to help them not come off when the engine flexes.
those A2W Ic's look big for those turbos, how much HP you shooting for?

The turbos are fixed and do not flex with the engine (pictures are not too big, but you can see the flex pipes on the manifold to turbo pipes). The intercoolers are good for around 1200hp along with the whole setup except for the fuel system (and stock block) right now.
The motor is stock for now, along with the manifolds. I just wanted to get some numbers on it before i built it. It should be in the 650-700 range at around 8psi on the stock block.
Its going to be a daily driver street car that will see some track time. The car right now actually only has 5000 miles on it. It has been sitting at the shop for about a year and a half while i try to find time to work on it. tomorrow i am going to try and finish up the oil and start on the fuel. Its been so long since i have driven it, its time to finish, screw evrything else i need to do right now!
