well i thought that i would share what i have all done with my truck over the last little while. when i first started comin onto this site i was running a 6.0 with an STS rear mount and a GT67 turbo, then i went and stepped upto a magnacharger mp 112 with a 2.8 inch pulley. with that i ran a best of 14.35 in a 5900 pound truck with 22's and a big stereo, i think that was pretty damn good. last winter i bought a 408 from TRT and patriot heads,then i bought an mp 122 off (superchargedSS) or (moregrips) old blower. i had that on my truck for about 2 weeks and decided it wasnt going to put out enough boost, and then I decided to setup a T76 turbonetics front mount with KBracing manifold. NOW. This is it, the finale! i am now installing a new TVS 2300 jackshaft, cog overdrive on back, 3.2 pulley, 2.8 RIP pulley for racing. moroso intercooler tank, edelbrock heads massaged by Richard at WCCH, long tube headers.

Here is the victim: my 02 escalade EXT, it used to be AWD


Here is the 122 blower after it was all installed for the 2 weeks it was on there. This is when i converted everything to a 2wd, 4l80 and whatnot


this is my truck under the knife as we speak


low compression 408, about 8.8 to 1 right now, but i have new heads on the way thanks to richard from WCCH. victor jr manifold with an edelbrock elbow


installed my turbo and manifold, have to reroute water lines and whatnot. had to take my TB elbow to a machine shop because the bottom holes for the tb didnt line up on the elbow, its a stock ls2 90mm. anyone else have this problem???

 

NICE!!! You sound like me, I've had almost the same setups on my truck at one time or another, .

 

Nice...

 

So is anyone gonna actually run moregrip's blower. It just keeps getting traded and not used.
Looks like its gonna be a great project though!

 

yea i sure wish i could have ran that blower, its so damn nice, but it just wouldnt put out any boost for my low compression.

 

Looking good, wish I had the patience and cash to try the different setups.

Cleaned up the html code in you original post. Looks like you copied the code from photobucket and then used the insert image icon. When you copy the image code from PB you just paste it into the thread without clicking the image icon.

 

k thanks alot, one question i have, dont know if i will get a response on here or not... what size is everyone running for cold side piping?? i picked up a whole bunch of 3" bends but am wondering if i should be running smaller

 

3" is fine, I run 2 1/2 from the turbo to the intercooler, then 3" from intercooler to the motor, but nothing wrong with 3" the whole way.

 

I think you are going the right direction for your truck buddy. Didn't realize you had so much into her!!

Gonna be a nice *** build once she's all done!

Where did the blower end up going to?

 

it is still sitting in the boxes waiting to be shipped to exodus...
