    how custom were you thinking about doing it??? I was/am thinking about doing a full custom twin sts on my 99. maybe we can swap ideas and get better ones from each other

    Basically Im just stealing their Idea and making some changes. Ill buy the turbo, wastegate, oil pump, etc.. Mount the turbo closer to the engine, then fab the charge tubes & exh. myself. Im not doing anything wild, as this is my DD. I, of course, want more power & more torque for towing. Ive got a good friend that can custom tune it on rollers for E85.
    This is all something for the future, now Im just getting ideas and trying to find some funding!!
    If you have any ideas, Id love to hear em, or if you have any q's let me know.
    I havnt played with twins before, and personally think a single would do the trick for a street truck. I know theres always that wow factor, but I like to keep things clean and simple.

    Thats pretty much what I was thinking but only with two turbos instead of one...
    My ideas kinda came from looking at the way they set up their m***angs and the c6 vettes only it would involve moving the fuel tank and relocating the spare and all kinds of other random stuff..
    But the only time mine would be on the street is on my way to the track or to shows. If you want to know more just ask me. I like to think up crap like that

    Welcome to the site man! Sounds like you've got some big plans for the truck...adding a front mount turbo would really make that thing move pretty well. There are some tricks to fabbing up your own turbo and making it run well...
