Have you checked out ls1tech? Guys usually run 3", 3 1/2" and rarely 4" dp on the ls projects. Some people tried to run 5" downpipes but lost TQ down in the bottom range of the curve. Also, running a 5" dp will hurt the spool time of the turbo. I have been doing tons of research because I would like to run a single turbo in my camaro.

Very cool project, Regals have always been my favorite of the G-bodies. I like the turbo tie in, too.

You should work something like this into the theme of it..

There are few things I like more than seeing an IC peak through a grill. I definitely need to own a turbo car at some point in my life.

Yea I know. Its more of a for looks thing. I'm not worried about power loss, she is giong to have enough torque to compensate.

Made the Alternator relocation brackets today as well as a T-stat housing. Needed it for belt clearance.
