My Ultimate Turbo 6 Port Almost Street Legal Car!
whats the estimation on how long this engine is going to last making 550 rwhp? Iv always heard that problems started happening at just over 400hp...

This motor,i don't know, the next motor who knows, hahah. Its all about tuning and what seals and who builds the motor and if you beat the **** out of it or not, many variables to it on how long it will last. I really don't care about this one as long as it last long enough to get my motor built

Ok this is how i think i'm going to have the gauge cluster, the voltmeter and fuel level gauge will be mounted in the dash in the holes i already have for 2 gauges. What do you all think about it, it is about the same total size as the stock cluster.
Ok did some more work on the car today, would have gotten more done but i got called into work to do some warrenty work on this Suburban. I'm rdoing my aluminum dash some so that iwill be able to remove the cover of the dash and all the gauges will stay in place.

Heres some new picutres, i got most of the interior painted just got a couple of spots that need to be finished. I also got the fuse block and wiring harness in the car now just got to connect all the wires to the sensors but i'm going to wait till the rest of the electronic things i need before i do that. But heres the pictures.
Well more parts came today, its the stereo parts, i figured i wassn't going to put a radio in the car but with the poweer i plan to have it won't hurt to have a little bit of weight from it, also i love listening to music when i drive hard. I got a JVC DVD/CD player and radio headunit, Pioneer 6.5" 4 way speakers for the front, Pioneer 6"x9" 5 way speakers for the rear, and a Pioneer 60watts x 4 RMS amp to pwer the hell out of the speakers. I also got a Hornet 2way transponder alarm system for the car too. But heres some pics. Hopefully i will get another day off again soon to finish installing everthing.
I was wondering about the exhaust manifold that you posted a picture of in the beginning of this thread....how does that work? I can't tell how the pipes work with a turbo. Does that manifold work with a certain type of turbo?
