45 engine bays are pretty tight forward of the motor, sides are a squeeze so turbos would be a really tight fit unless mounted low.

no updates really. car is back in our possesion of last week. dropped the trans and sent out to sfr for complete build and also restall of torque converter. once we get the trans back and car back up and running, we will be retuning the whole setup with the smaller pulley and full use of the water injection. meth is out the window due to his kid riding in this vehicle from time to time.

why is meth out of the question? Do kids normally get under the hood with straws and suck on fluids?

meth is in the back if you look at the pics where the trunk is. Just afraid if I ever get in a rear end collision that something stupid might happen. Plus i figured i need the cooling more than the higher octane since houston is averaging around 103-105 degrees (water is also cheaper ).

ahh i didnt even really notice that was a methanol tank back there. methanol is only $5/gallon (at least at my local track). You can always mount a 1 gallon tank in the engine bay. Super easy if you still have your bumper brace.

Run 50/50 and its not flammable (correct me if I'm wrong guys) because of the water. Its also the highest mix safe with the standard sureflow pumps.
