Default So i'm finally turbo'd (96 teg ls)

After realizing N/A sucks, I started piecing a turbo setup together...few weeks later y49crxsi and I put it all together. Did not run as smooth as I expected, but we got it done....dont flame on the wheels they came with the car (i just painted them black lol)

yes, its the 6" fmic.....a/c we had to remove, radiator fan took a hike and we used the a/c fan instead (slimmer)...manifold costed me 165 shipped from bmc racing (homemadeturbo.com). When it was all mounted, the wastegate didn't clear the radiator, so we kinda ghetto rigged a homemade mount and pushed the radiator back against the frame an inch or so...it fits, but barely

BTW, I took some pics of the safc in the glove box and my a/f and boost in the cupholder (you know you like it) but i didnt' get those pictures back for some reason
