Awesome!!! That looks amazing

 

So now that 85% of the engine wiring is done and things have been moved, I'd like to show off the engine bay a little. I'm still going to move a couple of factory harnesses so the look better, but I did the best wire tuck I really could. Everything on the top end of the motor is plugged in, injectors coils, sensors, the works. I think it looks pretty nice so far.







Oh yeah and one of the nearly completed front end.

 

Looks better with the turbo in there....just saying

 

yeah, good work

 

Well I'm torn guys. After giving it some thought I think I'm going to change the turbo. This GT91/97 isn't going going to get it done. I'm considering either a GT5533R-2 (94mm) or a GT5541R (106mm)

Does anyone else have any other big (1700+) horsepower single turbo recommendations?

Thanks.

 

What are you trying to accomplish? Big difference between a 94mm and 106mm

 

Thanks for chiming in Jake. Essentially Garrett only offers those two turbos that are bigger than what I have. I'm not a Precision fan at all, but I'm willing to look at their products if they can build what I need.

Essentially what I'm trying to do is not push the turbo to its limits and become a major source of heat. I'd like to reach my goals while still having a little wiggle room.

 

Call Reed at workturbochargers and tell him Richard said you need an S500

Of the 2 you listed, I would go with the 94...a 106 is a donkey dick of a turbo even for a 427. If you want any kind of street manners anyway...

 

Dude I needa come down and see this beast. I'm not far out... things a beast man!

 

wow this build keeps getting better and better lol, ready to see it done
