    You can't make that much power on a 2.5" DP.

    LS1 maf needs the maf tables changed and IIRC an adaptor, but with 2.5" charge tube you won't be able to run it anyway.

      Why not flip the turbo so the exhaust outlet is facing the passengerside? Then it'll only
      take a 90* bend to get the downpipe going towards the back of the car. And you need
      at least a 3" downpipe for that turbo.

      I don't really understand why you did the y pipe that way. If you rotate the exhaust housing
      so the inlet is facing up, you'll just have two 90* bends instead of a 90* and a 180*.

        yeah im doing a three inch down pipe to the original exhaust with and electric cut out.

        Honestly i did it that way so i can show off the turbo right at the top with no piping in the way

        As for the intercooler piping i will try the 2.5 piping if i dont like it i will go to 3 inch.

                        So they finnally sent me the right transmission and i installed it yesterday and today. works perfect, i like the stall, transmission cooler is working.



                        Its done and running once again i just need the poly transmission mount cause the stock autozone rubber ones SUCK.



                        Now just need to finish the motor buy fuel system, and i am getting it dyno tuned after all i found one in toen.

                                I like the tranny cooler, looks like crossflow coolers. Nice choice.
