Single turbo system progress (pics)

All of the exhaust is done. Headers are 1 5/8 mild steel and the flanges are 1/2 thick.

Thanks guys


Elkyracer- the only money I might make with that turbo system is if I do some street racing. No plans to mass produce the system.

Dont worry, thats replacing the blower on his 96. I think he is keeping the LT4 just the way it is. The 96 does have an LT4 intake and the pimpin LT4 valvcovers though
