getting close, only a few minor hurdles left, i.e. wiring the MSD, and injector converter.

Any idea? During my mockup I had my turbo in the same place but I couldn't fit the radiator, so it ended up going over towards the fender further.

Stock radiator fits like a champ. This is the turbo kit off my car

I even had room for the ~3/8th thick turbine housing blanket.

Re: Something nasty this way comes.... :)

I'd like to see some pics with the radiator in the car. My stock radiator wouldn't even come close to fitting with a turbo even smaller than that in the same location. I'd like to see what you're doing differently.

does that intake pipe clear the stock hood? If so, I'm impressed awesome looking regardless though

Re: Something nasty this way comes.... :)

It amazes me that you guys can fit so much in our engine compartment. Does your engine compartment have hair around it?

Either it wasn't there the first time I looked or I missed it since it isn't hyperlinked. I apologize profusely. It was inexcusable.

A simple "check out the link" would have worked, too and wouldn't have made you sound like an ***.

Thanks for the pic!

Re: Something nasty this way comes.... :)

I can fit two T-76 turbos under my hood. It has GT-40's now but was mocked up with a T76. I have room for 2 more GT-40s if I need them
I really should update the picts on my site. A lot has changed since then. No more opti/coil wires everywhere. Engine compartment been painted.

machine-
its called careful design. The stock hood closes just fine (1/4" clearance). I might add I sitll had cruise/AC/PS and RUBBER engine mounts, and didnt have to move the radiator. But if you move the radiator you can open up a TON of room!

no compromises....
