Twin Turbo Build!

That is awesome! I'm sure the HP of a turbo could change my mind about em, but that uneven intercooler really bugged me behind the gt grills

Ben - as a guy who wants to do his own stuff....I don't imagine as a hobbyist, I'd achieve the experience you obviously have... BUT... I'd like to buy another welder to do stainless exhaust and perhaps some aluminum work. I have an HTP Mig right now and I like it. Do you have a suggestion for a garage setup? Not looking for the cheapest - I'd like it to do a great job (if I'm able). ;)

We agree and this will look much better! Best looking intercooler on the market as far as we are concerned

Starting out the machine wont matter as much as learning the technique and prep but we use HTP Invertatig machines here, they are affordable and work great! If your ballin pick up a Miller Dynasty, they are on our wish list for Santa this year!

A few more shots of the downpipes. I've got some other good pictures to share when I can get to uploading them.

More coming soon, the car should be running by this weekend! Tuning to follow shortly after that.

I hear ya - I'm just not a fan of "fighting" the equipment. Thanks - I was already looking at them again, since I like the MIG so much.

Any other essentials?

:shocked: What downpipes are those?

 

[ben@fatfab]

AndreiD, those are custom! ;)

Working on getting the car ready for Street Car Takeover this weekend, if you are in the area stop by our booth and check it out!

John has been busting ass to get it done and has a lot put together. I will be updating with more pictures before the end of the week so check back.

New McLeod clutch is installed, we ran into some issues with flywheel bolt length and we have a lot of pictures and data that I will be sharing in another thread. Here is a pic of stock side by side with the McLeod.

On to the good stuff.

And the money shot!

Here's to hoping we get some decent weather for the Street Car Takeover this weekend! I'll swing by your booth if it's nice out.

They moved the race to Sunday! Weather looks clear right now just a little chilly.
