Again, sorry for the delay on this project. We have a lot going on in the shop right now, and have been working on this build a little bit at a time. The intercooler is almost finished, it should be completed tomorrow and be able to finish plumbing the cold side. It is a 3 inch core 12 inches tall and 24 inches long, and the core is manufactured by BELL which is very high quality. We are making the end tanks in house. All of the cold side pipes that will see boost are getting bead rolled and will use t-bolt clamps to keep everything together where we couldn't weld it. Intercooler pic below:

Do you need to get rid of the whipple? I'm looking for one..... Also, if you're going to sell this turbo kit, what's your target price range?
Well, poop. I just saw that everything is sold in the other thread, but still interested once you guys get pricing info for the turbos.

The price range is going to be $9-$10k roughly depending on options. Pictures of the complete kit coming later today.

looks good. just a quick question, what made you dump the intakes down low vs. just doing a 90 towards each fender? space problems?

Fuel surge tank and breather tank on one side, and the meth reservoir is on the other side. plus, it gets cooler air coming in from outside the engine bay a bit better also .
