ITs been on the internet for a while. Havn't got the time to appreciate it till now. I'm sure he didn't have too much clearance issues. I hope he got both turbos in.

The turbo is dual ball bearing with 74mm titanium compressor wheel. Other mods include 1000cc injectors, AEM Ecu, Aeromotive external pump, the norm...

I did this because I bought my car, It was too slow and so I looked at the twin turbo kits coming out for it, they were priced at $7,000 + and you only get around 425rwhp. So I wasnt going to spend that kind of money for that little power. So I sold my stock motor and transmission for the RB26 and some other things. Overall the swap wasn't more money, making twice the power.

The car isn't done yet, but I honestly don't believe it will destroy the handleing of the car. If it does, all I need is new suspension and JIC is willing to help out. I am about to order the remaining parts within the next few weeks and It should be done within 2 more months. I can't wait until I finish it, but my car isn't a priority yet.

man you should have it completed for the convention. that would be a nice one to see there. and is the turbo you are talking about a GT80? by ITS. if so that is the nicest turbo i know of. and those pikes peak cars are just insane.
