Guys

I was looking for a more 'streetable' turbo (those pesky LS1 cars get a good jump) so I decided on a PT67dbb (AKA GT37R)

We started the fab work tonight, modifying the existing downpipe. I am making an intermediate downpipe piece so that I'll easily be able to remove this turbo and swap out to my 42 in probably 20 minutes if im quick. You can see where the intermediate piece will be, right after the turbo







Waiting on 2 more v-band flanges to show up tomorrow and I should be up and running this weekend, cant wait!

I'm *hoping* for a powerband shift to the left of at least 1500rpms....
