Re: What do you guys think???

Thx for the reply brother...I'm supposed to go down and test it on Saturday, its still in the car abd running. The dude runs a performer eddy manifold and carb on it now. I told him to keep them and give me a better price....I'm working on it.

My only question is where do I mount the intercooler?

Thx I really appreciate it...please shoot me your number through a message. The plan is to go down on Saturday afternoon. It's a 86 mi drive but well worth or it seems...

Found out more info about the turbo setup....no ic no ic piping. Coming from a background of Mitsubishi Evos and Subarus I didn't like the news but I already have a buyer for the exhaust manifolds and turbo.

I know its gonna be a pain hooking everything up not to mention cutting but here's my question....that engine without a turbo, hooked up and perfectly running...approx HP TQ? With the turbo running, reliable at 5lbs of boost I'm assuming plus 30 HP/TQ...give or take.

Re: What do you guys think???

From my knowledge, the only way to mount an intercooler on a c10 is front mount which means getting rid of the trans cooler, cutting my grill and have the ic stick out of the front grill...or like I said, sell the turbo setup and go all motor.

I need answers and numbers damnit!!!! Lol.

With 882s and not knowing the compression and that small cam, I would guess 250-275 hp, 300 tq. 5lbs boost would be closer to 75 hp bump.
