Update from June '12
Tim sent me this picture last night. GMPP LS3 & TR6060 The car is headed to Magnaflow early next week so they can fabricate the exhaust system. Sal and I will be going over there on Tuesday so I expect to get a ton of pics. http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_4349.jpg |
The day @ Magnaflow with Hot Rod TV filming was great.
Turbonetics supplied 76mm Inducer Compressor/75mm Exducer exhaust/1.01 A/R http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0815.jpg Turbonetics New Gen Wastegate & Godzilla BOV http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0816.jpg Pushed into the corner & ready for the exhaust http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0819.jpg Some pics of the new cage. http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0820.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0821.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0823.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0824.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0826.jpg Hooker supplied these epic cast exhaust manifolds. They are great for tight packaging and turbo applications. http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0825.jpg A couple shots before Magnaflow got to work. http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0827.jpg Reggie from Turbonetics talking to Tim about turbocharging http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0841.jpg Left to Right: Tim(Owner), Reggie(Turbonetics), Richard(MagnaFlow), & Jason (The GMR) http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0842.jpg Starting on the driver's side exhaust http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0848.jpg |
Final turbo placement may be slightly different because the radiator wasn't mounted yet.
http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0849.jpg The car was up on the lift so I snapped a pic of the rearend. http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0856.jpg Jason from 'The GMR' talking to the camera about his full floater hubs on the Currie rearend. http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0857.jpg Yours truly putting on his serious face for the camera. http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0860.jpg Jose Cruz from MagnaFlow starts building the downpipe and exhaust system. http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0850.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0858.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0859.jpg Tim's good friend and resident goofball Jeff Long looking on while tack welds are placed on the exhaust. http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0879.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0880.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0881.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0882.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0883.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0889.jpg http://i981.photobucket.com/albums/a...a/IMG_0890.jpg |
We ran out of daylight so we just dropped the car down and let Hot Rod TV finish up their portion of filming.

Update form October '12
I took some mock up wheels to try out on Tim's car today. I took the opportunity to take some current pics. Unfortunately, the car won't be done for SEMA but it will still be there but incomplete. It will be in the Turbnonetics booth.
