Good job.. So how much this whole setup cost and be truthful about it. :P If a shop would have done this the cost would be at least 2x or 3x more.

Pretty cool.. what turbochargers did you use? Did you taper the plenum at all? What's realy cool to do on a manifold like that.. is to have someone weld a nice lip around the entrance to each runner.. and then go back with a dremel/grinder, and make some air horns (velocity stacks). This helps eliminate turbulence as the air turns to go into the runners. I can appreciate the work that went into the build though.. realy nice man. Dump some C16 in, and crank the timing.. you'll bust 300whp easily. :)

Also, can you let me know where you are getting close radius u-bends like that from? I own a small shop in Louisiana, and I need a new supplier for my bends. Thanks.. Here's a few pics of my "project". ;)

Actually.. it started it's life as an SR20DE (non-turbo) S14 engine. To my knowledge, this is the first RWD SR20DE to be built and hopefully the first to break 600whp. The DET is way over-priced.. when you can buy a complete non turbo engine/tranny swap for like 550-600.00. The only difference is 9.5:1 C/R instead of 8.5:1, no oil squirters on the underside of the pistons (I usually take these out anyways), and a 1mm smaller exhaust valve-stem. The block, crank, and head are the same.

It will suffice for now.. I want to eventually do a VH45DE (Infiniti Q45 V8) with a nice turbo setup on it.
