yes we are, -8 to the prefilter, -8 to the pump, -6 for everything after the pump. the only return is right in the back so a single -6 going up front. not sure what that will support but we wont be asking more than 300hp or so from it.
Jim,
Quite some time ago, I was told (by Precision, I believe) that I couldn't have the turbo at an angle (like you've built) at more than 15*. Any chance you've researched this and found the same information? If not, it might be something to look in to...
Regardless, looking forward to more of the greatness.

I could be wrong, but that's how I see it.

God I love this wagon. I have to say that I am a huge fan of the Fairmont, so I'll be watching the wagon with interest.
The side mirror makes that car by the way.

things are coming together. we picked up a tranny, shift kit, vacume mod, dip stick, mufflers and the converter will be here on tuesday. last night we got it fired up on the squirt. built some exhaust for it(still loud), put in the shift kit and vacume mod. john is plugging away on the wireing and alky fuel system.
tranny should be in the car next week, right after that we order the drive shaft, tunnel cover, lines... i could see going for a test drive in a month or so but it will probably take longer.
