SingleT Turbo Build Log

Goal of the car is to make some decent power on a full one off single turbo setup. All fabwork is being done by local fabricator here in Shreveport called T.I.TS. Car will keep ABS, AC, Power Steering and all other factory options. Very basic setup: S475, 4 inch downpipe, precision 66mm wastegate and 2.5in dump tube, 4 inch thick intercooler, 3.5 inch intercooler piping. Kit will be fully ceramic coated. Push lock vacuum fittings. Id1000's and dual fuel pumps. Car is a L99 with stock cam for the time being. Eventually will be a LS3 converted valvetrain and a converter.

Is that a twin scroll turbo/flange ? Are you worried about how close the hot pipes are to the coolant hoses? I've thought about going turbo but the heat keeps me wonder about melting everything plastic or rubber in the engine bay.

Your build looks great so far!! Looking forward to see this build

The downpipe was finished up yesterday. I'll get some new pics of later today.

Dual pump is the FORE setup with the aem pumps.
