No problem Jean. I think I have them posted i my turbo thread but they are not all on one page. Try this Photobucket link and let me know if you have access to all my turbo install photos? http://s222.photobucket.com/albums/d...bo%20Assembly/ If not I will burn a DVD and mail it with the clutch.

John,
You are the man John. I always look at your setup and am still puzzled how there are so many lines/hoses from the intake manifold and all around; always wonder what each line is needed for. Whenever I go visit Florida your house is going to be a stop to visit.
Car is sick.

You can probably save a lot of money if you do some of the work yourself. You're pretty resourceful. 800+ bhp would be awesome. You'll need to figure out a way on how to transfer the power to the ground. I'm having trouble with 450bhp. I didn't do the work on my car, but if I can help out in any way, let me know. | | | | | 09-14-2010, 07:01 PM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2007 Location: Gulfport, Florida Posts: 3,208 |

With slicks I think I will have a bunch of broken driveline parts. I just want the power to be there so I can play with it. I will do all work on this motor except machine work that I don't have the tools or knowledge to complete correctly. I'm not sure what body style I will put it in yet. | | | | | 09-14-2010, 10:01 PM | #12 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 |

Will help with the 0-60 mph run and 1/4 mile. | | | | | 09-17-2010, 08:55 AM | #15 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2007 Location: Gulfport, Florida Posts: 3,208 |
