Default PT88 build, 6" intercooler!!

We just wrapped up our latest custom build. Customer has a 427 and tells us he wants to make alot of power. lol. So we desided to go with a Precisions PT88. This unit is alot larger then our standard stuff. Luck has it, fits perfect in with our standard header location. The Precision turbo uses a 3" outlet, that changed a little of our layout. All 3" tubing up to the maf location then starts to open up to the the 3.5". The throttle body tube we had some bent with extra long legs, this cut down our weld time and just looks better.
The 6" thick intercooler was needed to match the alot of power spec I was given. It fits in the front area like our other kits, but we did have to tilt the IC a little to get the 3" tubing to line up and get around the sway bar.

The 3.5" DP was an usuall lay out but it clear all the AC and can be installed rather easily.
This set up with good tuning, and engine combo should make over a 1000hp to the ground.

So if you are looking for something custom we can build it for you. Just drop me a PM to talk about your combo.

Rick

a few things are left out of this pic, oil lines, clamps, etc.

i think the PT88 is going to be little on the small side for a heathly 427. especially in high rpms. think parish was maxing his out around 6200 rpms and even with is 4" exhaust it was causing back pressure. that 3.5" downpipe is probably going to restrict that motor from ever seening its full potential

427 shouldn't need to spin up past 6K to get the job done.

Rick, that intercooler is going to be very difficult to cool. The thicker the core, the harder the air is on it. Keep that in mind.
