We got that BMFT to fit. We had to shorten the turbo mount pipe 3/8 of a inch and lengthen the support bracket the same amount. We welded a 3" aluminum elbow on the compressor ioutlet to get the compressor outlet pipe above the crossover. Nick sent Ryan a picture of the turbo mounted and I'm sure he will post it later. Man that thing is hugh. It is a Y2K 83 MM up front and a new design exhaust housing that looks like the larger T6 but is a T4

Nice work..... Car should move quite nicely.

We have those turbos here and they are nice. Just T-netics answer to the GT42. Same turbine housing footprint as well.

How close is the turbine pipe to the steering strut (goes under it) on the passenger side?

TTi: Great work. Could we see some more pics of the passenger side? Maybe another shot from the top and bottom.

These pictures are with the wheels hanging (still sitting on the lift) so the tie rod will sit parallel with the ground.

Looks like the strut will be much closer to the rollbar than your system.

Remember, both the steering arm and the swaybar are at full droop. IE, they will move away from the hotside when the car is on the ground. However, Ryans Hooptie will probably be at full droop during a launch

Wow i love the pictures on how you guys fab up the headers. I stayed staring at each one for 5min. to get a complete understanding of everything, thanks for those photos. And you kit looks better than any other i have seen, i think im going to have to sell my nitrous kit i dont want to wait anymore for a turbo kit.

I love the setup of this kit. The difference in the pics Ryan and Turbo Tech posted and MightyMouse posted show the changes made very clearly.

Props to both of you guys for having some killer setups.
