BBSDesigns Turbo Pics Soon!!!! Give me a brake!! :-)
Hi, I know you all there are asking yourselfs if its for real, well yes it is. I have pictures of the actual single turbo setup. I am in the search of a new video/digital camera, as soon I get I will take pictures of every part and post them in here and on new auctions.
Thank you,
Edgardo Bermudez
Huh… I just tried to send you email to that address (answering the question you answered in the other thread and also hoping to see any other pictures) and it bounced:

hey Edgardo, you dont by chance know a guy that has or atleast had a red GTA single turbo over there? I used to talk to another Pablo with an 82 or 83 Z28 that was helping to build that setup.
Edgardo,
The setup looks good! What wastegate are you running, and how do you plan on adding the extra fuel and reducing timing as you get into boost? The first version of the Z28tt ran just great at 5 psi non-intercooled

Hi Andris, that is a Innovative wastegate, extra fuel was supplied via nitrous foggers that turned on as boost went up. As for timming I didnt have a retard unit so I set it at 16-18 degress in retard. I agree(5 psi) with you if someone is wanting to run his or hers stock engine and ecm, I would recommend 5 psi and rising fuel pressure.
Looks a whole hell of a lot like something I've got sitting in the garage right now (part of the reason for the curiosity on my part), the biggest difference is that mine has the crossover tucked in rather then around the starter (It looks like will leave room for a 4" or so down pipe in the future) and the turbo sits lower which ends up making plug access much better. Well, that and mine is all stainless
Is that a headman or hooker driver's side header? Looks like a hooker. If it is you might want to consider trying a headman on that side since it's got a slightly different collector angle which will allow you to run the crossover pipe straighter, I'll bet that that little dogleg in yours will contact the crossmember on a car with worn out engine mounts. I've got a headman one sitting around from the car that I just parted out that I've considered using but I've pretty much decided that I'm going to stick with a manifold on that side.
