i've seen the LS1motorsports kit, and that is the kit i want to clone. Seems the simplest, (if you can call it that... he he )

Any pics of a fully dressed engine with turbo assembly?

Hey smokinhawk, on youre website i seen that you took youre r6 to muncie do you ever take youre car there? That is where i race at, if you decide to come over and race the car let me know i would like to check the car out. I am planning on doing a similar set up. By the way i used to race bikes at muncie also my best was on my 98 gsxr750 i went 10.55 at 135mph alot of fun

yup, the special edition 2003 R6 comes that way.

Yes i take my car there, its been down for a while, getting things done, so i have got over there this year. But that is my usual track i race at.
I like to go to the friday night imp/dom wars and whoop up on some rice, will be there this month for that. Probably wont get my car done till the end of the month

there are pics of a fully dressed engin in my websight but its hard to see the turbo that way.
