Turbo LS coupe w/ pics *UPDATE* new suspension
car used to be turbo'd with pretty much the same setup on a z6 and it blew that ****** up, droped the ls in it and it blew the valve seals on #3 cylinder, so i took the head to get a valve job (new seals, grind valves, new seats, cleaned and milled)
new o.e. piston rings
acl bearings
450 dsm black tops
tuner toys charge piping
CCA intercooler 6x3x31 or seomthing
stealthmode oil lines, fittings and restricter valve
big 16g dsm turbo @ 8psi (stock)
WeirTech log mani that i had to put a b series flange on
1g dsm bov
dsm bov flange from tuner toys
cometic head gasket
ARP head studs
chipped p06 w/ chrome basemap
pulls pretty good, will post dyno number when i get them and any track times
just got my new suspension from lsd...skunk2 sport shocks and megan lower control arms, im just reusing my old coilovers they still feel ok if u like a bumpy ride... but its way better than it was w/ 2 completly blown struts

exhaust doesn't look bad.
Only suggestions I have would be to
1. get the surface rust off and paint the charge piping.
2. Get a catch can for the valve cover.
3. Remove the injector wiring mess and use the distribution block. (Put the resistor box in the back corner.)
good job on the setup.
where does that vacuum tube go on the charge piping near the throttle? why is the radiator crooked? missing the rubber pieces on the bottom?
