Default My custom turbo setup....

Well, the turbo setup is pretty much gone and the car is being prepped to be sold however I thought I would post this video since it's the only one I have. Thanks to John(BlownFRC) for taking the vid and sending it to me.

hehe ya it fools some when you pop the hood. It was a forged 6.0L with PP Stage 3 LS6 heads, custom cam and every bolt on you can think of going through an A4 with a YankSS 4000......then I got married and now I own the vehicle in my sig lol

I had a 4000 stall and a .96 AR exhaust housing, there was a noticeable lag, not sure when it kicked in but by the time my converter kicked in there was plenty boost there!

No it's a custom kit I built similar to the STS but for much less and the components consist of a Master Power T70, Tial 40mm Wastegate and a Tial 50mm BOV along with custom mandrel bent exhaust feeding it, 3in off the headers into a custom 4in Y-Pipe that feeds the turbo, oh and the stock look when you pop the hood, the inlet pipe is coming up inside of the airlid.

Ya as soon as I get out of the military I'll be doing another one, except this time it will be geared more towards a track car and will have a bunch of weight removed from the thing.

You are selling it because you got married!!!??? Are you kidding!? Or do you mean to the military? If so then I understand. But a woman? Hell no! If there is a will, there is a way. I got married shortly after getting my car and it is still here and getting modded.

Very cool btw. Nice work. Too bad its gotta go.
