It all looks good but that E3 exhaust manifold will be a restriction. Also, is that one of those turbos from Ebay? That may be a problem in the future.

Today is the last day of the year for Saturday fun racing. We're currently putting a Garrett PT61 on my Son's V6. The motor had been rebuilt to accept the turbo stress. We'll have it done in the next few weeks, but he is still going to need a tranny. Know anyone around that wants to get rid of a C4?

Why dont you rotate your intake? then you can have less tubing for ur intercooler, and they wont b as near the exhaust.

Maybe 20PSI, new computer, new 3" VAM, and some porting will make it faster
