This is why I cut the flanges off the manifolds. It allows for a much cleaner and easier way for routing the hot side.

My buddy that is welding the manifolds is doing all the welding for those funky ass steed speed turbo manis.

how the hell does that car get the air into the TB with all the hot parts mounted that damn high? and why is the hot side mounted so high up and not down by the crank?

You're an idiot. Your 2nd post is pointing out what you think are flaws in a well done highly custom swap and turbo set-up. Way to go asshat. Let's see your badass swapped + single turbo muscle car with painstakingly flawless tig welded work like this guy has. Who gives a ---- about potentially high IAT's in this situation anyway lol. I think his set-up will be more than ample and the hot air near the TB won't be as big an issue as you're saying it will be.

Also, there is nothing wrong with where the turbo is mounted. It's surprising he even got it to sit where it is. It's a 6.0L monster not a 1.8L rubber band motor. You've never heard of a top mount set-up I take it? Look at the size of the turbo, do you really think it could sit any lower? I think his build is excellent and very well planned and executed. I'm sure it's far better than anything you're bench racing ass has ever done. Go race some Kia's with your 90whp shitbox dumb nig ger fa ggot.

And my plumbing will be quite a bit different compared to the completed kit I posted. He wanted to retain the battery in the front passenger headlight area where I don't care and its going in the trunk.

thanks :)

racing solutions(sponsor here), has ones that are lined inside... Not sure if most are not lined but its worth checking out.

Damn bro car looks sick :o. Thats is the same motor as the gmc yukon. I remember seeing a turbo kit for those car, at 5psi they hit a little over 400hp and that with the all time 4wheel drive trans. Can't wait to see what it puts down.
