Over the last few months we’ve been putting a lot of focus into growing other areas of the business, particularly commercial pipe spooling, coded pressure welding, and larger fabrication projects.
We’ll still be doing automotive work, but we’ll be toning it down a little and focusing more on the bigger projects we’re genuinely interested in, rather than relying on a high turnover of smaller jobs.
With that said, check out this weapon build we recently completed!
George’s new HQ build in for a pretty wild turbo setup. We have done a few cars for George over the years, the engine and turbo manifolds were kept from his VL we done a couple years back and used on the new HQ build.
We managed to keep the passenger side manifold ending at the collector and fabbed from there. This was mainly just to save time as he wants to get the car to gazzants.
The car runs a built LS3, t400 and shortened 9” combo
Georges instructions were, big turbo, no pipework visible through the grill, make it sick. Free range and the budget needed to make something awesome.
✅fabricate 4-1 drivers side manifold with 2.5” 304 crossover
✅ garret gtx5020r gen2 turbo with a tial 1.45a/r rear housing and a single 60mm turbo smart wastegate, this was the biggest challenge to fit.
We spaced the radiator and front mount I/c forward 20mm for the turbo and keep the i/c pipework behind the grill.
A 60mm Turbosmart gate was the next challenge getting it in a decent location for good boost control, I ended up having to go underneath so the turbo still cleared the massive Aussie desert cooler radiator n fan combo and stayed under the bonnet.
Ported collector,t6 vband housing for the turbo and a 65nb steam pipe to the WG
✅fitted plazmaclamps to on the I/c to get through the rad support with very limited space we kept 3.5” off the turbo but had to go back down to 3” to stay inside the grill, expanding to 4”, notching for the rad unfortunately
✅5” dump to 4” exhaust hurricane muffler dumped at the diff with a 2.5” screamer.
1000-1200rwhp target🫡
