Scott we would like to hit low 13s with the stock head and cam. Ive spoke to some guys that have done mid to high 12s with the same setup just in a light weight car. These motors came 190 hp stock with 8lbs of boost. So with the extra mods i believe Kevin and i will be close to our goal for a stock head and cam motor. Forgot we will be adding a 2 step and 65mm tb. along with a turbocoupe computer. This motor will also have the 35lb injectors and 3"vam meter with 255 pump. Just gathering the last of the parts and we're ready. Since Kevin lives in delaware people will see it alot. Alot more than me. I'll let you guys know when its close to being done.

Exhaust done. The only thing to do is boost guage and tuning. Sounds sick when giving gas. All should be done except tuning on sunday.

Well its time to put a clutch in. To much boost on a 7.5" clutch isnt good. So the turbo clutch set next[hopefully this weekend].
Looks like finger prints on the pic. hummm
