Dude, that is some serious f'ing stuff right there! Way beyond my current (or even future) aspirations for my Mach. I'm thinking maybe doing something a bit simpler (and cheaper) and doing a pair of flipped manifolds and a pair of Turbocoupe IHIs underhood. That said, you're install looks fantastic and is clearly very very functional.

And if you were asking about my Mach's color, it's just the original Bright Gold Metalic in a modern base/clear. My car is a bit of a compromise in terms of goals and realizations. I always intended the car to be a daily driver, never a show car, but I've done quite a bit of budget stuff to it and stuff that isn't so obvious. I'd love to do AirRide, but I could only afford a Pro-motorsports A-arm drop kit and some mid-eye leafs. I'd love a 31 spline 9" lsd, but I can afford the stock 28 spline open 9". I'd love Baer brakes all the way around, but I can afford stock front discs and a Mk VII rear disc conversion. You see what I mean... which is why if I do a turbo conversion, it'll have to be modest budget oriented too.

Thanks again for the pics and info... very inspirational.

Vert cool car. I would think the rear mounted turbos would mean a lot of lag. But then again, 427 cubes probably take care of the low end torque.

Im in the planning stages for my remote mount turbo setup. Would you mind to terribly if I duplicate yours. If not, would you post up specifics. Turbo size, wastegate, BOV, oil system... Any regrets? I've got a 347 so I imagine my turbos would be a little smaller.

yea iam takeing the turbos off and going all motor for now. The motor was rated for 525 with a carb i got FI now so it should still be a quick ride at 2800 pounds its a bill mitchell motor a 351 stroked to a 427. Iam thinking about some head porting pistons and a procharger in a few years. I want to change the color and and do a new set of wheels. My turbo setup is for sale now. its twin garretts 60 trims tial wastegates iam running one oil pump per turbo and a oil cooler. I wish this hole setup was planned better the turbos were a after thought my motor can handle just under 1000hp but the cam is wrong and should have diffrent lifters the compession is to high the pipeing should of been more well thought out. Its some what of a headache if i went with a procharger off the bat i would of saved 10s of thousands. But at the same time when iam cruseing and i jump on it traffic stops it sound like a hellbent 18 wheeler!

Love it! I want one. How much are you asking for everything but the piping?

Sounds like a hell of a bargain. But.... after more thought and research, those 60's are a little big for my setup and the IC will likely not fit in front of my corr support and condenser. Thanks anyway and good luck with the sale.

What oil pumps are you running?
