My BIG turbo build at Slowhawks
As a few of you know i have a turbocharged 99 trans am. I bought it stock, it went through a nitrous phase then i decided to turbo it. swapped in a 6.0 and a t76 and ran it for a couple years. the kit was Extremely restrictive and of poor quality , constantly in need of welding because of cracking. So i decided to hit don up and we worked out a deal to tag team the new turbo build.
The car drove in as this: TTI street kit (log manifold on driverside with manifold on pass side crossed over) rated at 450-500 before it becomes restrictive. t76 turbo Stock 6.0 shortblock stock ls1 intake selfported 317 heads F-11 cam 3 inch thick air to air intercooler rated at 550hp 38mm turbo smart wastegate. I hate typing.......anyways , so first heres the star of the show. Here is the old t4 76mm next to the new t6 71MM ....yes thats right.... its not the size of the inlet that counts its the amount of cfm the compressor can supply. the t76 is rated at about 500-600hp with the exhaust housing it has on it. the new 71mm is rated at 850hp Both have an A/R of .96 on the exhaust side

Day one consisted of getting the old turbo kit off and pulling the radiator and intake and front cap to make room for the new intake , radiator relocation, and new turbo kit.
Couplers anyone LOL? Had a tire on the highway rip part of the charge pipe off, this was a "quick fix" but it worked. heres some more, pictures speak for themselves
