About to drop in the turbo motor while I wait for the last few parts to get finished with dip and I need a little more cash to get the turbo and I'll be set, would anyone have any leads on a good turbo?

http://i1341.photobucket.com/albums/...ps23r32erm.jpg tested the bumper to see how it's going to look and I can't wait lol
Unless there is something wrong with that flex plate don't touch it. After destroying 2 in about 6 months and snapping all 8 arp bolts off even though they were red locktite'd in im getting sick of doing flex plates. I don't have time to wait for a meziere billet plate this just needs to get back together and running normal so I can leave it for my wife as a spare vehicle incase she needs while im gone.
The weld doesn't seem like a bad idea to me LOL im half temped to do that too. These last 2 have really pissed me off. The 1st time it was cracked between the 3 windows in the flex and at least I could limp that one around like when I drove it to the shop. The time around like I said all 8 bolts are snapped off flush with the crank.
Are you gonna have room for your downpipe?
Idk I feel with a high horse power build it might be a problem and if I can prevent a problem down the lime I rather take the time on the build, you know?Quote:

As for now honestly id leave it and if it if/when it breaks and hope it doesn't LOL!
A buddy said he has a broken bolt on his with a cam so it should be fine for some time, and for transmission I have a low miles one I'm going to just eat up while I build one on the side. I have a built one but one of the gears started to slip so I need to fix itQuote:

I have the supercharger hosing for now with a ported lim, I have someone making a bigger block off for me because the hole on the lim is 1 1/2 in to big,
http://i1341.photobucket.com/albums/...pszodh5xwu.png I have plans to make something like this :) not sure if I will keep the tb on the drivers side or copy this to help keep intake temperature down
http://i1341.photobucket.com/albums/...ps6s8ez8wm.jpg hopefully getting the 40th tuned this week having problems with figuring out my dhp
http://i1341.photobucket.com/albums/...psyj8ikim4.jpg I'm going to try to sand and fill this to keep it from rusting, it has some surface rust just because of the snow thus year but the metal is still great
That cross section at ZZP is quite cool.
I know we wanted to sit and talk with them a little but they where behind 1 day because of another customers build. It was definitely cool seeing all the nice carsQuote:

http://i1341.photobucket.com/albums/...pscclnaxur.jpg got a picture from my buddy on another part he dipped for me, man it looks great this is the hood latch area
Coming along nice, I like the front bumper. It's the way it should have been from the factory.
Thank you, I don't know why they never made it like this, I'm sure they would have sold way more with this kit even if it was on the gtp only lolQuote:

Awesome progess. I saw some of your instagram pics too. Makes me want to finish getting my turbo stuff together. It's just been extremely hard with school and track lately.
You should gotten a hold of me when you went to ZZP. I live 5 minutes down the road from there.
