hay guys i have remote mounted my turbo by the out put shaft on the transfer case ill be posting pics soon

I used a flowmaster y pipe to bring the down tubs togeather and feed into the turbo. Installed pacesetter headers (speeking of those any one got feed back on them?) The turbo oil return line runs to a tilton pump, then to a b&m street rod trans cooler, frome there dumps into the pasenger valve cover. Controlling fuel preasher is a sards performance fuel preasher regulater. After that i removed the stock fuel regulater and had a number 6 jic tiged to the fuel rail.

I'm running a t56 turbo with a inter cooler. After a little triming i got the intercooler to fit between the grill and core suport. To relive boost is a type r bov. (All charge tubes are 2.5 inch mandrell) After the turbo is a removed muffler (been replaced with a y pipe)then into my dule tail pipes. The mass air flow is still suck through but has been relocated to behind the bumper. The turbo has been moved since the pics, Updated pics soon . Tips welcom thanks

I orderd the last of my stuff yesterday. Has any one run the 66mm throttle body i paid danm neer 300 for it and found out latter that it is only 6mm bigger than stock, dose it make a diffrence or not
 






If I may, I would like to make a suggestion. I'm not trying to "flame" you or anything, but you might want to try to use proper puncuation and capitalization.

It is very hard to read your posts, as they amount to one long run-on sentence. It's just very hard on the eyes. Many people will probably skip right over. You'll get more responses, and help, if it's easier to read.

By the way, it does sound like an interesting project.

Looking at those pics, I'm starting to miss my 91 explorer. Have you noticed any turbo lag since you installed it? I had turbos on my Ford GT40 but took them off and went back to the Supercharger because it had so much turbo lag in it.
