thanks 

you won't believe the amount of supercharger stuff I have laying around I probably can pay for a whole new project just by selling that stuff .

any how ,,, more progress to report :

I got the new intercooler in today :



I'm 90% going to use this , but the 10% part of me says use the old air to water unit I had and have it mounted between the engine and radiator like I did before ,,,, but I keep thinking how much weight its going to add and heat soak its going to get from that location. but it sure would save some work ( relocating the transmission cooler and installing and plumbing the new intercooler).


I finished welding the down tubes from the headers to the turbos :





and before I forget , here a few pics showing how much I took off the p/s bracket so I can have some space between the v band clamp and the bracket ( I could have taken less , but this much gave me ample room to put on and take off the clamp easily) :





so next up is fabbing up the pipes from the turbo to the old exhaust, then working on the WG placement and piping.

I also ordered a pair of 6" long bullet mufflers to see if I can fit them in behind the turbooutlet and before it goes into the k member just to keep things "quite-er" if I can .

more to come soon
