Subscribed! Looking good Rick

 

Looking good. What did you paint your frame with?

 

I stripped it down to bare metal and then hit it with rustoleum primer and semi gloss black.

 

Looking good any updates? We need some more turbo guys around the fort worth area.

 

I hear ya man. i remember when I first turboed my VHO there was only me, 2toneblown, and a guy from weatherford with an sts that i knew of. im teady to have another fast truck.

Rick sent me a picture of my turbo mounted up. He said he was in the middle of trying to finish up a couple of other builds that were in front of mine. Hopefully there will be some progress soon.

 

What are you going todo for the pcm? Use a stock one or aftermarket like holley or megasquirt? The truck being a 1990 i dont think it is subject to emission testing anymore so i think you can run whatever.

 

I should have the ic mounted up next week.
The turbo pic was a prototype. It's sitting a little to tall.
So it will be rough 1-1.5" lower. The xover is no problem lots of room.
Mounting the gate to the manifold it has a gate mounting point.
Mike's 66mm gate will
Be mounted similar to the 39mm but just a lot freaking larger.

If anyone wants some hot pipes just let me know. Ill add you to the list.

 

Who made the A/C brackets? I need a set for my 87 crew.
