When you get your pictures developed, ask for a photo CD, it costs a little extra, but is faster and better than scanning them.


BTW looks great, that thing is going to be a fast son of a bitch.

Looks good!

How's access to the FPR? You might want to think about custom fuel rails and a firewall-mounted FPR.

FYI, I would not use that nitrile rubber connector at the TB.

It is meant for low vacuum conditions, aka pre-turbo intake, not pressurized situations post turbo.

Best bet is to get one of the Vortec/Paxton TPI aluminum pieces for the supercharged apps. I've seen 'em in Jegs/Summit for $50-70 I believe.

Looks like a T3 variant turbo, from the SVO mustang stuff ? What kinda boost you gonna be running?

Header design looks nifty. Good luck with it all, looks like it'll be a fun vehicle.

Damn dude......... That looks sinister, thats gonna ROCK for sure.



Like everyone else said, we need the gratuitous donut video or two. Since all yer gonna be able to do is donuts when ya crank up the boost !

I agree... but for 10 bucks...
Im going to run 4 to 7lbs to get it on the road and test out my custom engine mounts etc.
then this winter I'll spent real dollars and time to hook up the inter cooler etc

I believe its a big T03 turbine with special innards and T04B compressor also with special innards

thanks "we're not worthy!"

I saw your other pics and not these...

It's either that or you uploaded Survivor Spoiler Pics and labeled them as Turbo Fiero pics in order to trick me (again) and this is god protecting me.
