GT2871RS's will arrive on Monday, and the fabbing work will start not long after that.
Building custom mani's, DP, dump pipes, plumbing and new air filter box intake. The other one will be trashed as it will be in the way of the turbo's. :D
I shall be organising build pics to keep you all posted.
I'm so bloody excited. :assassin:

those just look nasty scotty, have you thought about going with an external wastegate though?

Hmmmm. Yes, but I don't believe I need to run external. At an extra $600 ish each or whatever the cost, I'de rather just go internal. I can change later on down that track (so to speak) but for now I really just want to get her running. It's going on 5 months and I'm close to killing someone. I can't tell you how much I hate public transport! :D

Thanx man..... Here's what's going into this monster;
GT2871RS turbo's
Custom long tube Manifolds DP Dump pipe & plumbing
780cc injectors + hotwire kit + KB Boost-a-Pump
Engine rebuild + Stage 3 heads
CP Pistons (8:1) Pauter Rods 2nd Gen forged crank

Man, I hear lots of stories about guys who have been off road for a year. That would hurt me badly. I don't have any other car so this bitch is it for me. Dumb I know, but I can't afford a dd when every cent goes to the G-Unit! :D You have an eta on when she'll be back for you???

Speaking of progress, I'll be making a call tomorrow. If those big ass bitches haven't made any progress into that engine bay, I'm going to be a little frustrated.

Not sure. I don't believe so without modding the flanges.
