Im not sure but I believe it was 4 inches thick. Inlinepro tells you to shave the intercooler and bumper for it to fit. But RCN motors made me custom bracets to keep every fresh
Thanks! im running 93 because e85 won't be practical for me right now.

Looks really good. What are you gonna do about the ac lines and all the wiring and battery? That stuff is gonna cook very quickly like that. Are you gonna tuck that side, vent the hood, etc? Just curious as I see a serious fire hazard there. That turbo is massive, it looks like a ass kicking setup for sure.

coming from another ilp stage 2 owner, your fuse box will start to melt soon lol
ceramic coating on the manifold and downpipe, header-wrap and some of that heat reflecting tape did the trick for me (as well as the front 2 hood vents)

What turbo did Tom send you? He sent me the s366 with the street kit so I was assuming I could hit my numbers since I told him my goals it was a bigger turbo and I could do it with less PSI. But I did get all those goodies after seeing the placement of everything! Based off of your turbo experience do you think I could hit above 400whp on a mustang dyno with about 11-12psi?

i bought my kit used and paired it with a garrett p-trim i got from Evans Tuning.
at first I didn't think I would want anything over 600, but now since I have to put all my stuff into a new car, i'm going to go ahead and see if I can't get into the 700's. (stopped at 450 on pump/93 octane the first time around)
i imagine you will make similar numbers to illestrolla, since yall have both have nice sidewinders and the same turbo. a good safe limit is 450whp. I imagine that you will be between 360-420, depending on how low that dyno reads. that would definitely be above 400 on a dynojet. The lag will probably suck after a while for you and illestrolla, since yall have such low goals and such huge turbos, but thats just my opinion, obviously.
