Someone mailed this link to me.
I would NOT GO THIS ROUTE!!!! Notice the lack of upper and lower core support... still some novel ideas and it is a BIG honkin turbo.

 

I also got this mailed to me. You could weld up a frame around the turbo to suport the front end.that car should scream

 

i too got this emailed to me, i thought it was interesting but dont like the setup. i'd go my own route

 

I talked to the guy. The radiator support would bother me, but he said has not has any problems. I am sure some extra bracing could be made to work(insurance).The headers are mild steel and has not had any problems cracking(I would prefer stainless though. He didn't do a bad job. If anybody complains, he has run 8.98@ 153(spinning), 5.60's 128 1/8. He must be doing something right.I wish I had that problem..lol

 

Interesting. After seeing it..I'm thinking about doing it to mine. Would certainly make it much easierto work on. if you leave the bumper in place..should still have plenty of support.

Actually what I think I'll do is cut out the lower support..and make a weld in crossmember that fits my setup better instead.

 

He can't be spinning too much with a 1.30 60ft,thats traction.

With his 1/4 mile this is true....his 60' time seems a little soft for a 8.98 but that is due to the lag of the turbo

for his et of 8.98 @ 153 is actually about right....he *might* be able to muster a 8.90-8.95 but with that mph it is about right
