woohoo, my turbo showed up

after 10+ weeks of waiting

I threw it on the car for a couple quick pics.. It's HEAVY


I also startd another webpage kind of like the old "twin turbo LT1" page.. it's here:

http://teamprickracing.com/thumper.htm

hopefully I'll get the mockup complete this weekend then I can tear everything down and get all the piping coated..

I still have to go through the motor too, it's still a 13.5:1 427... need to do a little de-strokage..

Happy Hotrodding

Come on B-dawg, when are you gonna stop playing around?

Looks nice. If you're keeping the stock suspension, get ready to be put under the light when it runs a 7.

I'm not one to predict ET's, but it should make enough power to run a lot faster than the stock style suspension will handle..

1500+ bhp is expected, the glide shouldn't rob too much..

again, horsepower won't be the problem- the problem will be getting the car down the track..

*if* it will handle the horsepower, all I have to do is up the turbo- I can bolt on anything from a PT91 to a PT106 with ZERO changes to any hardware..

I need to up my life insurance..

Jeff, it's actually not bad... Brady can fit in the passenger seat with no problems. The pics don't do it justice, theres miles of room..... and the top pipe makes a pretty nice arm rest.

Brooke, "EFI Spyder" elbow.. We ordered a few of them from Coast High Performance and got a price break.
