For those that may not have access to the other forum, here are some pics of the GT4788 mocked up on the 7m. I sent the manifold over to SP so that they could test fit the turbo, and jet hot coat it. The turbo sports a 88mm inducer and a .96 turbine housing, and will easily support well over 1000whp on a 3l motor....so on with a few pics....(and yes, i knwo hood clearance is an issue, and one im not concerned with...lol)

uhh how do you spool such a beast?

I've run things this big on a 3.0 liter motor. A 75 shot of N02 is enough to get it to spool when sitting on the transbrake at the line.

The abridged version is...

-assemble head and put on the shortblock
-make turbo to TB piping
-fab up "exhaust"
-redo the oilpump to block line in AN fittings
-wire up the 6 extra injectors
-mount fuel cell and run fuel lines
-have custom driveshaft made
-bend up fogger kit for each runner
-miscellaneous wiring (boost controller, standalone[95%done], nitrous)
-finish the floorign over the rear subframe
-primer the car flat black
-dyno and tune

thats about it...lol
