Turbo build

Turbo build finally underway . A driveline failure precipitated the inevitable .
Car torn down , parts coming in from Jannetty , JGF Turbo . I've been shopping all afternoon .
Will post pics as my attention deficit allows me to organize them .
Presently I'm replacing my stripped diff gears with 4.11s , adding an ADM dual pump and BMR rear subframe street bushings . Headers and front bumper are off prepping for intercooler install and turbo header fab .
The old stainless Dynatechs with high flow cats are going on Ebay .

This is what my 4.10s look like after bangin' second @7500 . Wear pattern looked good anyway , plus they took 8000 miles of my abuse .
Inevitable I guess .

Thanks for the comment, and Corey is awesome at the details, but Speedster still has my vote.. and there are a huge number of really sweet cars out there..

Are you going to be at the fest... I know the build is underway, but...

Very nice! I haven't found the need to go adjustable quite yet. The car hooks surprisingly well and is pretty controllable with the throttle. Your probably going a bit more extreme than me. When the new motor goes in, it will be on my list. I just wish there was somewhere I could run it. I can't bring myself to put a roll bar in it right now.

Huck , your setup is killer . Nice job , I saw your dyno post , excellent .
I do plan on building a motor next and addressing any other weak links as they surface .

You should get there no problem. I can't blame you with going adjustable now. One more thing out of the way for later. Please keep up posted. Might want to think about axles soon. Hell, I'm scared to go from a dig because my driveshaft loop hasnt shown up yet. Its never ending.

True, my wife asked me if it ever ends, uhhhh no... I'll drive mine for a while and then add an adjuster, time to dial from mild to wild...
