Question for you @IDIoit, on this guy, can you post (or PM if no one else is interested) what your manifold setup looks like to get those turbo's there? It looks like stock manifolds turned upside down and flipped sides, but I assume that's waaaay to simplistic of a possibility.

Thanks! You guys got my creative juices flowing!

If I remember correctly, those are 100% custom fabbed manifolds....

I would post some pics, but there all there and a lot to see, pour some whiskey and have a read.

mod and put a Cummings in the girl. She is still in the beginning stages and we have the tranny bolted up. I am just a helper on this project.

Now THAT was a fun read. Thanks for cataloging it so well!

Lots to consider. Spending most of my time now researching turbocharger designs, a/r ratios, spool speeds, pulses, etc. Man, what an in-depth field! Fun stuff!

Thanks for the encouragement guys. I'll make sure to keep everyone posted!
