All the links that I could find from searches are dead ends or they don't say anything about any kits. Are there any kits out there (minus the banks, can't afford that one)?

TIA

 

just build your own

 

Appearently that's all that I can do.

Can anyone suggest some good books? I went and picked up Maximum Boost from Corky Bell last night, but they didn't have Turbochargers, so I have to purchase that one.

 

once again another downfall of the tirdgen aftermarket, it sucks....period.... im pretty sure all you can do is piece together your own kit, or sell you car for a 5.0 fox mustang and have 3000000 choices ( joking lol, but its the truth)

 

Na, I don't like the styling on the fox chassis. I'll keep my third gen.

 

I dont have any input on a turbo setups, but I wanted to comment on your car. Beautiful paint scheme! Im not a Camaro fan, but that is awesome! Ill be painting my 84 MSE in the next couple of weeks (finally). Seeing that kinda motivates me

 

There just aren't any "bolt-on" twin turbo kits. You mentioned Banks. Yes, they have a "bolt-on" but it's far from this on a third gen.

I did go for the Banks and after I realized how much more needed to be modified, I was so far into the project that I could not realistically back out. I was running a ProCharger before this and I kept the twin intercooler setup but with altered ducting. After two years of trying to make things work, I finally got the engine running this weekend (08-05-06). The cool thing is, I think I have a pretty trick looking setup. I hope it runs as well as it looks....

 

Thanks dude . Post up some picst when you're done with the MSE!!

Thanks for the input Willie. I've been laying out the plans for building my setup, but I'm far from being finished. Hopefully I'll be able to get everything ready to start fabbing this winter. You'll probably see me around this board often.

 

I've made two twinturbo setups for my car. I sold the first one to buy a transmission, pay car insurance, renew tags, and other stuff.

I'm not sure of the ethics, but I'd recommend looking at a picture of the BBS designs' headers and getting some ideas from that. I would think as long as you make it for yourself and don't sell them commercially you'd be alright. They look easy (relative to other designs) to make and you can get all the pipe from various online sources for under $200, like McMaster. Then you need flanges, turbos, oil lines etc. The hard part is tuning. In my opinion, tuning is probably why no one makes a kit.

When I saw that car in this thread, I went outside the very next day and sanded my entire car down, primed it, and sanded it again. It hit 106*F that day too.

 

I would like to purchase the BBS headers if I could ever get a hold of that guy. He disappeared when he quit building them. I can't find any good pitcues to copy them either.

Can I use the corvette TPI manifolds? I know they won't be the best for flow.

Thanks for the complements, I'm really happy with the way it turned out. I need to get the T56 rebuilt and in and my new engine.

 

Well not exactly disappeared, but yes, we did end the site for good and now we are concentrating more in the pharmaceutical parts that we do, conveyors, tanks, cabinets, etc.
If you want some headers let me know we still have the jigs and everything, and still do the ocasional kit for some people.

PS: I do have to post pictures of the GTA project, I am very confident that people are going to like it.
Current mods;

Working reverse scoop on full lightweight fiberglass hood, fiberglass front end, fiberglass lightweight center console with custom panel, "Tonka style" subframe connectors with connectors to the inner fenders, quad turbo, chopped front end....

 

what would the occasional Kit go for? :P And what year is the GTA, because i got 1 in the making and a twin turbo is what im really aiming for, wanna see what itd look like in a gta :P

 

PM Sent.

Post some pictures of the GTA asap!!.

 

I'm trying to convince Gene @ Mosmeyer Automotive (look at my TT thread for turbo header fabrication) to fabriacte headers for third gens but I dont know if he really wants to do that.. There are some pretty ugly looking headers out there for turbo cars (for our third gens).

I'll talk to him today and see what he says.

 

ebay has twin kits for like 800 buy it now for 1400... i asked my friend who has a supra and knows god awful amounts about turbocharged anything...he said it looks like a pretty good deal...all youd have to do is fab up your intake pipe...http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CHEVY...spagenameZWDVW

if you look they have remote kits too

 

holy old thread batman! almost a year old...and those ebay kits are of pretty poor quality...best to just make you're own..
