Post pics of your N/A Turbo engine bay

i saw a thread today about posting pics of your engine bays, but what about those who have custom-turbo'd the N/A's? I think people who want to turbo the N/A need a reference to help them out with their build.

Any and all pics are welcome!

Finished my TII swap about a month ago. Definitely worth all the headaches!

Sorry for the dirtyness, haven't cleaned the engine bay since the swap.

the idea of putting t2 **** on a non turbo 6 port block never appealed to me at all.

the idea of turboing an n/a shows that people have talent and are good with customizing stuff that they already have. this is why i wanted to let people show off what they have done. i soon will be posting pics of my build with track and dyno pics to show how much hp you can get out of a custom turbo n/a with the right tuning setup..................

You do know that everything you want to do has already been done, right?

Aaroncake proved the results of a turbo NA years ago.

I don't know of many. As far as Aaroncake, he may be the only one successful?
