Turbonetics turbos?
Yes.

This just in, hot chicks want boost!!!!
:lol::rockon:

Was just thinking g the same thing! Didn't know turbonetics had v band inlets?
I suppose they do. :shrug:

Wtf @ the turbos??? Are they JB?

And you wrapped the headers? Any clearance issues with wrapping them? Because I wasn't going to but now you're making me change my mind.
JB? :??:

No clearance issues at all.

How do you like the fuse box being where it is? Any room to move it elsewhere?
Not really any room to move it elsewhere. It's not real;y that bad to move. It just unbolts and moves over and bolts back down to the new bracket. Not difficult by any means.

Good build, keep it up
Thank you. :beer:

Damn. That's gonna bother me if I go with this kit. Thanks for the input :beer:
I wouldn't let that deter you from this kit. Everything is high quality and very well thought out IMO. The guys at Hellion have been Great! :rockon:

just interesting that hellion and Steve at BBR says Hellion would continue to use Precision and the price increase would not affect the price or kits! Well using the Turbonetics (cheaper) than Precision you would think it would drop the price some! Also "JB" (Journal Bearing)

Thanks. I bought this kit used off the SEMA car from 2012. Not even sure the price difference to be honest.

Here's the car it came off of.

Very interesting, I actually spoke to this guy for a good while at SEMA last year. So this was one of hellions first kits made. I have a handful of pics of his car too.

Well I got a little more work done yesterday.

Got both turbo's mounted and both down pipes on. All oil lines and drain back connected and car filled back with oil and new filter.

Here are the drain back hoses.

Looking good, very clean install and good call taking the oil pan off. I bet that made things easy.

It did. Also taking off the k-member helped make getting to things very easy as well.

O yeah baby!!

Thanks. :beer:

Looking good!

I know you used different fittings in the pan, but are those drain hoses what comes with the kit?
Yes. These are the drain hoses that come with the kit.

Well, I got some more work done.

Got the intercooler mounted. It mounts to the factory bumper bolts via aluminum adapters. The mount is solid as a rock!

Connected the tube to the driver side turbo output pipe to the intercooler.

Also hooked up the passenger side as well.

Good shot of the how well the intercooler fits.

Also mounted the manual boost controller. This will be temporary and will be replaced by an E-Boost 2.

And here is how it sits now. Just waiting on the fuel system to show up!
