I got the shells coated with that new hushmat product, zybar. Looks good so far!

Need a slim fan now, and either need to lower/move the abs or delete it. The turbo discharge is about 1-2” above the abs

What would happen if you switched your compressors from one side to the other? Leave the turbines where they are though. That would move the discharge away from the abs but I’m not sure if it would cause any other issues. Might be worth checking out anayway.

I tried that a little bit, the cold side is almost 9”in diameter so it’s all a tight fit

Latest picture. I ordered a new seal fan and will need to build a shroud, I found I will need to lower the ABS block or delete it and I will need to modify or move the upper radiator inlet since it’s right on the turbo snail. Things have slowed down since I blew out my shoulder but will get back at it soon

So it’s been a rough year for me with surgeries and shoulder and back problems so I have made zero progress. But today we got a few things knocked off the build list. Mosier axles, cobra posi and the Maximum Motorsports HD torque arm got installed today. Please excuse the crappy painting, was running late and got lazy

I am not sure what I will end up using but I do plan on a full exhaust and x pipe

I would definitely avoid any chambered muffler.

I don't think there is any benefit to using any type of crossover in the exhaust when you are using turbo's, single or dual. If you are planning on making 800-1000HP, a 3" exhaust from the turbo's to tailpipes, with straight through mufflers, is something I would recommend. I'm not sure how much room you have with the PHB.

I have the MM PHB, TA, and adj. anti-roll bar. My 3" exhaust dumps at the rear axle, though.
