Awesome dude!! this is amazing, finally someone built an engine bay mount setup. What size compressor wheel and exhuast turbine/housing ar are you using? What are doing for the turbo oil drain? I got to admit your turbo setup sounds deeper than any other, sounds great! Keep us updated!

Thank you.
All piping was custom made using modeling which was the blue thing. Can't wait to up the boost.

Lol i would hope its gravity drain, i should've rephrased to where is it draining to, oil pan, somewhere else on the block etc. I know mti wanted to return their oil to the oil pan but you have to lift the engine to access the pan so it took a while. Just wondering and interested in the build!

All sorts of cars have engine bay turbos, I cant imagine that we would not be able to have one due to heat. Some one said that a ram air hood would help, yeah it may, but I feel it would cause aero problems i.e. lift at high speeds. I feel that a heat extractor hood, like the sinister hood would be better.

I think that the best hood would be a hood like J Leno or showstoppers hood.

Yeah you're car sounds like a beast. It's not really a V8 sound nor is it really a V6 sound. It just sounds really mean and awesome. Very cool build. This is the type of stuff that I dig. It's just really different.

You are definitely succeeding. Your car to me, is one of the most compelling builds on Camaro5 V8 or V6. I'd take the way your car sounds over any V8 any day. Mine sounds pretty sweet with the LT's and the ARK DT-S catback but even on video I don't think I've heard anything that sounds as good as yours. I guess the million dollar question is how does it sound inside on a long trip? your car sounds so killer though I prolly wouldn't care about any possible drone.

Thank you very much. The way the shop made the piping it's less drone in the cabin. Only time its drone is when im in boost.
