I didn't know snails got so big, hope to see you run on sunday. I say you should twin turbo it for 2010, the one under the hood to spool up the gigantor on the roof 5sec. ftw haha!

did you custom make the headlight inlet?Originally Posted by SPOOLIN
Very nice! That's fukkin hot.
twin turbo, that would be a serious downgrade for sure.
The headlight is a gutted black housing headlight, then i took the skil saw to it.

HOLY TURBO!! Can I see a video... PLEASE!!
gahh bouy that turbo is huge and i love that headlight setup man thats pretty cool![]()
sweet. does the open housing not cause any issues, as in, does it not catch air?Originally Posted by SPOOLIN
are you planning on making it where there is a smooth bend to close the hole allowing a straight shot to the turbo?
damnnnnnnnnnnn nice set up first thing that caught my attention was that huge ass turbo
i think you are over analyzing a simple thing, It will not cause any slow down or drag and it allows plenty of outside air to get to the turbo. We will eventually make a box that will integrate into the light and attach to the turbo but thats just added form and adds little to the function.Originally Posted by Tran

Nice setup. Hopefully Sunday doesnt get rained out, so we can see the FWDs in action.

i wasn't sure if it would or not. cause it kinda is a hole in the front of your car. didn't know if it would cause drag or not, and didn't think it would hurt to ask. i know the outside air will be able to reach it without a problem, when running the turbo is probably pulling air thru.Originally Posted by SPOOLIN
looks good though.
car looks awesome!
however, i think you could have fit a bigger turbo in there if you really tried harder![]()
as everyone else has said, id love to see some current videos of the car. that thing is monstrous!
WOW!!!![]()
looks GREAT
lol thanks, i may go to the track this weekend try to do some work with it. Showdown is about a month away.
