Looks like a MAC truck is missing a turbo somewhere!!!!

As usual, Neal will blow 4 engines on his new car, before I ever roll mine out of the garage.

Priorities, what can I say!!


Looks good man! I am glad it is happening for you. As they say, money talks ... but apparently in your previous situation that phase is not for everybody.

Piping done and installed.. Turbo mounted, oil drain/feed lines finished. BOV installed, downpipe and exhaust installed. Only thing left to do is wiring of the fuel pumps, battery and put in a few gauges... So soon folks, soon...

Awesome! Yeah I'll definitely be there man! Better yet, we should all show up at the same time, lol... do you know Catch-22 and dj_silencer? They both have 7's in Charlotte as well. It would be kinda cool if we showed up with some numbers ay?

...hopefully my wheels will be in before then

Nice build man. I should have my FD done in a couple more weeks as well. I almost went with this turbo as well. Just couldn't rationlize replacing my entire fuel set-up to match. Next time.

Ant- hit me with a PM when you head down to the meet sometime. I'll try to get down with you all and lend more support to the rotor force time has been tight lately. I need to get out.

He will/should be north of 600rwhp easily if the engine is built set up for it. That turbo is not friggin joke! And rediculously affordable to get.

^^^^ fo sho!

15 psi for now.

20psi + water in a few.

And 25psi + c16 just to say I love you. Not hoping for anything,
But I've seen about 6 Dyno number results for this turbo and let's just
say it will be more than enough for me!
