    thanks guys,

    fast forward to october, played around with the idea of picking up a 69 C10 with a turbo LS 76mm but talked myself out of it. I had even scored a VVT 2010 6.0L ( LQ9 ) fon the CHEAP and bought a set of 317 heads but i sold everything off though.









    a customer at my job welded everything up for me for $20, i used a magnaflow Y- pipe with dual 2.5" inlets to a single 3" to the T4 twin scroll flange



    also scored a really good deal on a Holley corvette LS2 serpentine setup, so i switched over to Vette accessories, it fits like it was made for an S10/ G Body swap in general!

    I actually removed everything this week and changed my setup quite a bit. I went with a 304 stainless pipe with a stainless steel v band for easy removal and adjustment of the entire hotside.
    I had everything tig welded and I relocated my wastegate on the side of the pipe. Everything looks like shit because I have the bed off which I'm cutting a large access panel in. I don't plant on hauling anything so I have nothing to lose.

    I built a my rear mount setup for my ranger. The AIT temps will be lower at cruise and at speed due to the rocker being exposed to the moving air. Cool project!

    everything looks good but keep an eye on the boost with that wastegate on the side it might creep at low boost levels.
