1quick's I got tired of fwd but not the 3800 build thread

im sure you can get away with a/c you will just have to kick the down pipe out the front somewhere, im going to dump it right under the front fender with a muffler on the street and, just make a little turndown for at the track
 


I actually really like the all black engine! Looks like its dressed for a funeral when they get spanked by a turbo 3800 HAHA!
 
Well, I'm going to try to actually kick the downpipe right out the factory exhaust location...down the D/S and under the trans. I think that's where my big issue will be. I might end up making brackets to mount the A/C compressor right where the it is on the 2.2. I haven't quite figured it out because I need to get stuff together for mock up.
 
I'll have some more soon, hopefully pulling the fuel tank and stock lines today cleaning up the mounting straps and maybe getting my new fuel cell installed
 


So you are completely custom fabbing everything? There is alot of work going into this camaro. What are your goals? Will you cage it? Sub-12 seconds?
 
im looking to put the car in the bottom 10's high 9's with good luck lol, I would like it to make over 600whp and trap 140+ in the 1/4, i will cage it maybe i want to see how well it performs first before i go there, its going to be more of a summer street car but i do intend to track it atleast once a month as time premits
 


the whole car probably 15-20k i havent added it up but id bet ive got every bit of 15 into just parts at this point
 
i wont be selling it for quite a while, the nice thing about the camaro is when i get bored i swap the k member and engine harness and hello turbo lsx everything else bolts right up, throw together a new turbo kit buy rails and 2 extra injectors and im back on the road
 
Do you fab your own turbo kits yourself? Its good work man! What are your plans for the back half? Ladderbar? 4- Link? Your gonna have to put that power down somehow.

I did fab the turbo kit and reworked the radiator supports myself, I have a full adjustable aftermarket stock style suspension for it with coil overs for the front and triple adjustable rear shocks
 


shifter mounted still need some triming

tank and fuel pump mounted and plumbed i still have to run the return im waiting on a couple fittings to come for my regulator
 
and i set the motor and trans so i know where the rails are going to be exactly to plumb the fuel system, i might just leave it in there i dont think i really need to do anything else to the motor or trans
 
Keep up the good work! I just picked up a 2000 v6 camaro and it will be turbo as well this summer! Probably not that much power since I have to keep the stock 5 spd for a bit.. eventually it will be t56 swapped though. I can't stand a slush box :P It's just not for me, awesome build though! hope you keep it updated!
