I am considering build a Turbo 3rd Gen Camaro. I was wondering if you had any pics of your car? How did you do the headers, what size are the primaries tubes? where did you mount your Turbo? Any info, pics would be great.Have you had it on the chassis Dyno yet or made any passes?

Thanks

Project is not finished yet, but here you go:

1) No pics of car yet.
2) We custom-welded our own headers.
3) 1.625" primaries.
4) Turbo is on passenger side.
5) No dyno yet, should have chassis dyno numbers by April.

GMI FAST,

What's up with accels 7.0?
Is it available?

I talked with a local shop here today, and they said i'd be better off with the speedpro...with the wide band o2 and the 3 bar MAP sensor....and the 7.0 still has alot of bugs and has not been available

What do you think?

Thanks
Larry
