Default My current little project...

Hey guys, just wanted to show off some stuff i've been doing I'm building a twin turbo kit for a 350z right now. I'm using 2 garrett gt28 bb turbos, custom stainless manifolds, tial wastegates, xs intercooler, and a motec m800. The car is great, but nissan could've left a little more room to put turbos in there!

Haha, no, we're gonna go easy on it. It's still a stock motor and i don't know the weak link in these yet. I'm expecting 350-400whp at 7-8psi. Who knows though, only time will tell...

awsome project!
Do you mind if we have a look at the car when we'll be at your place for tuning lesson?

Sweet welds! What are you going to do with the internal wastegates? Just not connect a vacuum line?

I removed the acuators for the internal wastegates and welded the flapper shut. The guy wanted external wastegates open to atmosphere, he likes the sound. Besides him wanting externals, there isn't room for the internal actuator anyways.

Tranny? Hell, I had to take the motor out to get to the bolts that hold the turbo to the manifold! That and the fact that the motor has to come out to remove the oil pan for the return lines.
