I know I know you’re tired of seeing my car from the bottom, those days are over! lol
The turbo kit has been coming along slower then I wanted. It’s been a matter of getting parts. Over the winter I was at school and Dan @ speed inc. was working hard on finishing the hot side. When I got back from school I was disappointed to here the intercooler was on back order until late August (yes even shop employees have to wait for parts).
Extremely impatient, I started calling around and found a company bell intercoolers very pricey but they real nice stuff and they can ship them in three days. I was so pumped once the intercooler got here. I was working on the car every night after work. Two weeks later I had the complete cold side fabricated and installed.
I put the 60# injectors in it and Bob kurgan burned a chip for me to start the car and drive it in and out of the shop. I finished installing the innovative boost controller today and the only thing I have left to do is get the twin FORD GT fuel pumps installed once that’s done it will be on the rollers and Bob will come back and dyno tune it.
Over next winter I want to get the cold side powder coated the same color as the turbo (graphite gray). I would do it now but I just want to drive the car not wait another seven to ten days for powder coating. so for now it will be rattle can black. oooo yea.
One thing I demanded from dan was to not sacrafice ground clearance and as you can see the system doesnt.
turn your computer screen 90* to the right to see this one.
if your wondering thats Krylon
a little paint and finishing and it should look good.
a little paint and finishing touched it should look good. Cant wait to see the cold side coated.

I stand corrected. It is still a cool looking spot for it!!
