What diameter is that? 75mm?!? I thought when you needed that much flow through a WG, you would switch to a butterfly style vlave.

I am building a turbo kit that suits my truck better. the livernois kit was amazing in everyway. But the placement of everything on that kit is placed where it is so that the stock accesories can be used (like a/c). which i dont have. the kit will have a gt47-88 mounted in the grill. I will only have half of a radiator as before. a big a2w. that is just the beginning. just stay tuned, it will be amazing when finished
