I have been a little out of control with all the different things I have going on and have neglected to take the time to start a build thread. I am getting all projects under control and things are coming along to get some time to start this.
The car is from this board, missmy5.0 is the owner and dropped it off still with 30 day tags :-) We started from scratch and are using his car to not only build him a complete single turbo system and return to him tuned with supporting mods. The goal is only around the 425-450 per the customer request and I completely agree with his decision as its a stock bottom end car. In returns for him loaning the car, we doing all our design work, jigs/production kit from what we are building for him. Its taking a little longer than expected but what doesnt. The important part is that everything works out good and the car makes the numbers.
Mods will include
Single turbo kit(70mm), 2.5" stainless intercooler piping, 2.5 of manifolds into a 3" y, 3" to the turbo, 3" downpipe to catback, 38mm wastegate, 50mm bov, PMAS/On3 blow through meter setup, 39# injectors, kenny bell bap, and more Im sure I just forgetting

Some of the parts I had laser cut for the production kits. This is the swaybar relocation, p/s relocation bracket, intercooler support, turbo support

Here is the first test fit after jigs were built off our mockup. Didnt go quite a smooth and now things are being modified, jigs adjusted and should be dead on with this next test fit(keeping fingers crossed) It was close just not quite there where I would feel comfortable running a complete production kit from
