I vaguely remember something about it. I can't see it making a huge difference since the system is pressurized.

I mounted mine down, using the compression fitting on the passenger side with the cut/flipped and.

I don't know man. It's all about how much you wanna spend.

Wayyyy to much but a decent turbo kit is going to cost ya about 4k

Complete stock bottom end rebuild.
upgraded push rods, valve springs, head studs, multi layer head gaskets, triple 12 cam, resurfaced heads.

so a very mild rebuilt 5.3. The magic happens with the turbo and tune.



I took a old high school buddy for a ride yesterday. It was 50 and rainy so we didnt really go anywhere LOL. It spun all four into about half way through 2nd gear then grabbed and took off. I really cant wait to get a 1/4 pass outta this thing. Everything is working perfectly. That was the first time I launched it off the 2 step since this last level of upgrades.

I was just up at Rick from Tricks shop a couple weeks ago and between the visit there and seeing your build I want a kit so bad!!!! Awesome work you should post a 4x4 launch video or a 4x4 burnout video.
