first here is the motor build/swap:

motor has 8.75 CR ported heads and a medium size turbo cam.
here is the turbo install:

You can see in the last few pics, the pipes were painted and looked great.
I didn't have a 4 inch down pipe at the time to install the T72 on his car so I let him take my turbo temporarily. You can see the size difference :eek: .
After he drove back to dallas from houston that night apparently my turbo was on the way out already and self destructed on his car(see pics of pipes coated with oil all over). It felt pretty strong for the partial throttle 8 psi pull I did on teh street before he left. I cant imagine what it will pull when we get a decent turbo on it and turn up the boost [img]graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]
hoping for 500s hp with it, but I'll have to leave that up to the owner [img]tongue.gif[/img]
hoping that in the next two weeks we can have a new turbo for him to put into the car... Stay tuned..
