My turbo update

I must say I love the QUAD exhaust setup you have!!! Now if you could put some chrome tips on the trunk exhaust..........

Hawtnesssssssssss LMAO!
 


I am curious though, your intake is on the passanger side of the engine and not on the driver side closest to the turbo, why is that? It would seem less effiencent to run all the piping to the other side of the car?

I am a newb to Turbos, but just looking at how its setup, unless you are adding a second turbo? I am just curious :)
 
The exhaust is on the drivers side. this goes down to the turbo and out the hot side of the turbo. thus spins the turbines inside the turbo. ok...now that they are spinning the intake side is sucking in air. it then goes from the turbo through the intercooler in the front of the vehicle away from the hot exhaust....around and up to the intake.

basicly it is more efficent, less tight bends, farther away from exhaust..better cooling.

That clears that up :) I guess it is always better to have cooler air from the intercooler hitting the engine anyways :th_biggrin2:
 


so I backed you up on the clubgp thread, a lottt of haters, I was surprised to see all the disrespectful and stupid comments on there. Especially when matt called it a joke. But you can see most of the guys that have done custom projects before supported you...

I say its a joke because he is a joke. This guy has claimed so many projects and claimed so many things its not even funny.

Im pretty sure this is a useless post since the last time I said something "negative" about him it got moved.
 
All I can say, is we in IL have some amazing GPs'... so :th_nanana: to the other 49 states:th_thumbsup-wink:

Looks good so far! Just got home from picking up my Triple Edge Performance transmission a few hours ago. Truly a thing of beauty!! I'll have to stop down and check it out sometime this summer. I might still take a helping hand when I go to put my engines/transmissions back in the Regal and GTP also. Luckily only a few :th_doh: moments so far.

Good luck with finishing your build.
