Looks nice I gather you had to give up air and relocate the alternator obiviously.
I really like the looks and accessabiity of turbos up high they look very intimidating when you pop the hood.I also like the intercooler showing also. Wonder how it will cool with the pusher fans on there?

I am a bit depressed my kit is so stealth with the turbos down low and the intercooler in black and only top neck showing when you open the hood but whatever each setup has its own pluses and minues.I wanted to keep my air and didn't have to relocate anything except for very minor things like different coolant return and windshield washer reservoir.

That car should really be awesome fun.Enjoy your new toy!

I will, I am sending the PCM off to Speed Inc today to get a base tune on it so I can drive it a little to make sure there is nothing that needs be fixed.

Then It is off to Chicago

I am hoping that cooling is not as issue, The fans are rated at 1600 cfm a piece as a puller, and I am not running a thermostat either. Hopefully no problems but only time will tell.

There are some good ideas out there for cooling..lt1 rad for cheap..ron davis maybe for expensive option..
Also saw high volume water pump on ebay for like 150 bucks or the new edelbrock for 400 bucks .I plan on adding some of the above stuff if have any cooling problems on my car. Water wetter from redline can also help. I would for sure be running a therm no therm usually is bad the coolant goes thru too quickly. Restrictor if anything might be better idea but a 160 stat with fans to come on early or fans on all the time the car is running might be better options.

No thermostat, because I was told that I could not run one with the aftermarket housing. I bought the straight one from speed inc.

And yes I did post about how I moounted My FMIC a while ago, that was when i put the D1SC on it.

Did not know the trailor was that different.
