Parked Indefinite
 

Well here it sits. It's been my daily driver for the past couple years and I figured it's time to fix it up a little bit. My main goal is to do a twin turbo setup on it using a pair of holset hx35w's, but while it's off the road I plan to address the body and interior. I'm not sure how far I'll go with it but hopefully it doesn't snowball too much. Anyways, here's where it starts.

that looks slow!

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

This could get interesting...... What engine will you be running?

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

I'll be running the same engine that's currently in the truck for now. It's all stock as far I know.

I managed to get the front clip off the truck today as well as the old turbo setup. Almost ready to start planning out how I will run the twin setup. Here's some pics of the progress

Twin turbos and 3 on the tree? That is definitely unique! Lol

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Awesome!!!

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

:eek:

Teach me your ways. Carb + turbo scares me.

lol.

Sounds like a fun project.

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Hah! Kinda funny when you put it like that
Thanks!
I'll be glad to teach you when I have it figured out, definetly going to enjoy the journey getting there though

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

My focus on the twin turbo aspect of this project was slightly derailed when I noticed somebody at the dump throwing away some decent looking bucket seat cores. Seeing as I am planning to do some sort of bucket seat setup, I figured I'd take 'em home. After looking them up they seem to be from a 69-70 mustang. Did a quick mock-up and they seem to have potential, what do you guys think?

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Great Project

I like the Twin turbo idea

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

The seats lok good. I,d keep 'em and have them recovered.

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Well, made a little headway on the project today. Managed to get the basic shape of my motor mount cut out. Came out alright, just need a little more practice with the plasma cutter I suppose. Anyways here's a couple pics:

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Finished up the motor mount, now it's time to mount the turbos. Might brace it up a bit later on but it'll work fine for now.

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Looking good!

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Your motor mount looks pretty cool!! Is it to replace the stock ones or work in conjuction with?

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Thanks!

It's going to replace the stock ones, should give me plenty of room to run the hot side piping with them out of the way

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

wow this is crazy. I LIKE IT!!!

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Made some headway today:

Old mounts gone

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Got a start on the headers. Stumbled upon this old set, and despite being rotten on the bottom, they're solid up top. So I cut off the excess and bolted the remainder to the head. They're going to work out pretty good

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

looks awesome. i dont know about the twin turbos and non power breaks though

Re: Parked Indefinite
 

Awesome fab work and cool idea! I thought about putting a hx35w on my 354 hemi. What are running for timing adjustment when boost comes on? Keep up the great work!
