The rear wheels are CCW custom drag wheels. Threw them on temporary while these were being made

Larger plennum, adapter plate, and bigger throttle body. Brilliantly simple and elegant.

Great build! Are we going to see 900-1000+whp with the boost turned up?

He's going to see a exploded engine before 900HP on the current level of build. I believe they're going for 600HP at this level.

Haha I was about to say the same thing. What you'll see with the boost turned up is half a connecting rod launched into orbit

besides the engine, this turbo setup is only good to around 700 rwhp. not enough intercooler and probably stock plenum not going to last after a certain boost level

Looks absolutely gorgeous! I do love a good snail setup. I assume this is going to be a track only car? I only say that because I noticed the feed/return lines are standard braid, not SS braid. I'd be paranoid of rocks/objects slicing a line. I know the SS weighs more, but I do like that piece of mind. If this is just a weekend warrior track beast, then pardon my questions. In any case, IT LOOKS T*TS! Great job!

Really? You foresee the intake coming apart? Does it look particularly fragile?

I wonder what the mileage will improve to as well Without the parasitic blower spinning, when engaged, it should make for a noted improvement.
