Thanks so much Wayne! I'm a big fan of your build too! Great progress since i checked in on you last! We finished the hot and cold side mockups for turbos.... what a PITA!!! I thought i had tons of room in this second gen, especially with the rubber nose space between the core support and bumper... not so much. Still ended up getting in their with the hot-wrench and hacking it all up to buy clearance back. I'm headed to the shop/studio to snap some pics soon.

lol, I thought the same thing when I was considering turbo charging my TA. Then I started to really look at it and how I'd have to run the piping. I changed my mind real quick. Maybe one day though. Can't wait to see how you did it.

Good luck!

Default Updated photo Turbo Routing

Here's a quick pic. No, we're not staying with the Lowes corrugated piping... yes, wastegates and BOV's have been plumbed in since then. The Vintage air Frontrunner is the ONLY reason I can run this setup!!! Beautiful and functional components!! More to come.

Good idea using the flex for the mockup. We need someone to come up with a flex pipe that you heat once its' in position and it hardens so it doesn't move when you remove it, or a kit like the one to design headers with the plastic pieces.

I'll be watching for your updates.
