Got some pics of my turbo kit being built. Not very much so far, but there are good pics of the collector manifold. The turbo will sit in the place of the battery, not like the other kits.

how do you cut those nice notches in the primaries to match up to the log? jig notch?

Are the turbo manifolds going to be open on both sides??? How does that work?

Sean,
I would assume the cross over enteres on the back, turbo mounts on the front.

The primaries were cut by hand to fit up to the log. It's completely custom. Not all the primaries are the same length. We had to angle the log down to get past the ac compressor.

The drivers side stock ported manifold will cross over with a 2.5" pipe to the passenger side turbo manifold around the back. The turbo will sit off of the up-pipe in place of the battery.

why did you decided to go with a log manifold? ease of fabrication?

The log manifold was the easiest to fabricate.

We cut the runners with a plasma cutter by hand and then ground them down with a dye grinder.

Here (http://www.teamf-body.com/up-pipe.jpg) is a link to the most recent up-pipe pics. Keep in mind that this is a mild steel prototype. We are sending this unit out to be professionally fabricated out of stainless steel.

Looks great... any plans for an LT1 kit? Will you offer programming if we send you a .bin file? Also, technically in Kalifornia, if you move the Cats it won't pass visual regardless of how clean it is. Best of luck! I hope everything turns out well!
