Nice setup! Whats the run down on spec that you will be running?

Did you use the header from a grand prix and cut it up, looks like the GP header to me.

You should dump that 52mm and toss on a 58-60mm TB, lots better!

Where is the turbo output compressor? I only see the exhaust wheel housing.

I must say that is a unique way of test running an engine that's supposed to have a turbo, but the turbo isn't installed completely yet!

I hope you're running a pusher fan on that radiator.

Other than that...looks like it'll work! Good luck!

Thumbs up on choosing a gt35r. It will be awesome

The srt-4 intercooler will be a drag for you though. Way to small for what you are doing.
I wouldn't suggest using it on any 3.0 turbo project. Its desired by TD guys though.
