Mastadon: the drogons tooth is to create a better pulse flow into the turbo, a big must in exhaust manifold design often missed by "custom" exhaust companys and can also help the turbo to keep lag to a minimum. Also there will be a air box with the engine side of the box coated with gold heat protection called DEI it will also have a bonnet vent to supply the filter.
Sodslaw: i am aiming to see how much power i can run at 15psi, around the 330 mark i would imagine but as close to 350 as i can get it, the engine is fully forged and rebored running acl bearings etc.
Chungtington: The turbo i`m gonna run is a 2871 with upgraded bearing cages and heat sheild, should be capable of 420 hp according to Matt @ owen dev. The manifold is equal length running 38 mm primaries.
There are alot more pics to come but i got bored of uploading them yesterday so i will do some more tonight.

Nice build! That mount will make it feel like your driving a rampant rabit haha
I had solid mounts on my old 106 but took them off in the end and went to a power flex lower
Kept making the CDs skip haha..... I was using it as a daily car atthe time!!
Happy days lol
