update on my twin turbo iroc

Its been awhile since I posted anything on here, been busy. My friend is coming over this weekend with a digital camera.
I redid everything the 3" down pipes the turbos are now symetrical. I now have two tial 38 wastegates. I got a bone stock l98 just bolted on my steath ram intake and 72# injectors.
i painted the engine bay and ripped out all the wires, now just the FAST harness comes through the firewall. We started the car last night but my battery in my laptop died this summer so no go on tuning untill i get to radio shack. The plan is to run7-9PSI this fall/winter untill my new engine is done.
I'am working on a website for the car. I have learned alot in the last year and already have plans to change to two pt52s from precsion. The car remains a full street car with only the AC deleted. Do a search if you want to see some pics of the old setup in the spring.
A few specs--
6 speed
twin t3/4 turbos
FMIC
FAST WB ecu
custom fuel system
A forged 355 in the works, afr210 or track 1s
street car
I will have pics up this weekend I promise

My friend took the pics while we started the car. Not eaxtly a pro with the camaera. I got it started just need to get it to idle and fix a new oil leek probably the valve cover. The turbos were not hooked to the cooler in the pics, I will have to get a pic of the turbo piping its one piece and looks so nice. The engine is bone stock aside from the HSR. I already am thinking of redoing the down pipes under the headers and two gt-40 turbos or pt52s. The new 355 is in the works just a slow process$$$ The plan is to get some dyno numbers soon with about 8lbs and the with the new motor this winter. If the new motor dosn't make 750rwhp the turbos will be replaced. The turbos are t3/4 from Majestic turbo in TX "should be goosd to 400hp erach easy" I hope so?

The headers are s-10 v8 headers 1 5/8 primaries. I basicaly just cut the ends off and welded t-3 flanges on them. The downpipes are 3" If i do go with the downpipes under the headers i will also move the wastegates over the headers for more valve cover clearence.

alternator is where the AIR pump used to be, bottom passenger side. All you have to do is alongate the hole a little and spin the tensioner so it pulls the belt opposite. Takes an hour tops to do all that. The propell overflow was a last minute improvise

The rule was put into place because people on the appearance board would post 200 pics of their shiny paint job that looks just like everybody elses shiny paint job, and ultimately the same 200 pics showed up in every damn "show pics" thread on the site.

Posting these sort of pics stay true to the technical intention of the site and it's not nearly as likely to get dumped.
