Nice!

A few questions:

Any chance of retaining the bumper support with that intercooler?

What kind/brand of turbos are those?

Those turbos look like they mount in similar location as the SFR kit. Are you going to be using a scavenge pump too?

No..... although the sheer mass of this IC will almost certainly give you the same protection as the bumper support.

Garrett / Precision housings

Yes, any time the turbo oil return is below the level of oil in the pan, you need a scavenge pump.

I got them from Al at Intense...... who used to work at SFR I believe so who knows. I had to cut off the turbo ends of the headers and reposition the flanges for the type of turbo that we are using.

I'm sure any of the chicagoZ.com members would offer. I noticed quite a bit of new Z owners at the last meet.

+1 ... there is bound to be an 07 owner who will donate their Z temporarily for a discount or a free turbo kit

hahaha, they fit like a glove!!! We are making lots of progress on the kit, below are some updated pics. Don't mind the unfinished pipes, we still need to jig them up for production.





We'll jig up the pipes for the kit, get them polished up, get the motor back in and get her on the dyno!
