B&G twin turbo installation progress

I got the passenger header and turbo in place this evening.

I'll keep updating as I progress. I'm going to hit it hard this weekend.

Good looking kit. What turbo did you go with? Is that a Master Power T70 or Master Power GT45?

EDIT: Where does the turbo oil return line go to the oil pan. It looks like it will be almost flat for a ways before it makes it past the fender well, true?

It looks like the comp. housing is clocked for an intercooler. What size IC?

If I recall correctly they are two 6031 ball bearing turbos and yes the turbo fits in the other battery tray. B&G fabbed the entire kit including the headers. The oil return will run to the oil pan but I haven't decided how I am going to run it yet. I am thinking of running it down through the battery tray and through a hole in the frame (already there from factory). I'm going to use 10 AN hosing on a steady decline so it should be fine.

I think the intercooler is sized and a little over 4" thick. The kit has potential to push about 1000hp with the right engine setup. My plan is to run it with around 8lb on my current engine and end of year build a bullet proof low compression engine to crank up the boost.

I have the other header ready to go on I just need to weld the O2 bung in the downpipe before I put it on.

When you go to my site there should be a link to return to the main page and there should be pics of the complete setup there.

i know this is kind of a silly question, but where is your battery going to go? and i assume you have deleted your vapor can a while ago.

nice looking setup so far.

I'm mounting the battery in the trunk. I have box so it will pass at the track along with a kill switch but if I wasn't worried about it passing at the track I would mount it where the spare tire goes. I saw somewhere they make a bracket that bolts in to allow the battery to be easily secured in there.
