Yeah, yeah, I know. The Cammed/Intercooled M90 setup isn't what I want to do anymore, and as most of you have seen, I am selling all of it.

New setup time:

Holset HX52 Turbo
Turbonetics Evolution Wastegate
Greddy Type-RS BOV
Frozenboost 31x11.75x3 IC Core
Zex Wet Shot
VS Cam (for now, maybe I'll go for the VS cam record HP) smile
80lb Injectors
PRJ Walbro 255 Fuel Pump
Custom Intake Manifold
LS1 TB
85MM MAF (2001 LS1 Corvette) - Delphi 25168491
ZZP Gen 1 Fuel Logs
-6AN Stainless Fuel Lines
Z7 Crossover
CXRacing Intercooler Piping w/ siliconeintakes.com couplers
Front and Rear ZZP Powerlogs
And the biggest, custom downpipe I can fit

I just started piecing together the stuff earlier this week, and have everything in my possession except for the turbo which will be here next week. I will post up a couple of pics later, and will use this thread to keep everyone updated.

It was an awesome find. I was going to go with the $600 eBay one, but I was able to find one used off of a Craigslist in Richmond for $350+$19 for shipping. I guess they can be found for real cheap if you just look really hard for them.

Wow, i'm jealous. Wanna do a turbo setup in the worst way. Was about to borrow against my pension but decided to pay credit cards down first. I hate being responsible. have fun with install. I love working on my own car. I also drive a '95 Crown Vic (Interceptor) from the PoPo auction. Thats my daily driver... Pics Pics Pics

That's cool man. DeSoto Square Mall is still there, about 15 minutes from my house. Small world.

I'm not 100%. It is worth throwing them an email or calling, though. I know that some of the 5.9's had the HX52.

That pretty awesome, so that phenolic IC set up was a sinking ship?

What about the trans?

Not so much of a sinking ship as I really have wanted to do this for a while, and now have access to a welder, so I can save a ton of money.

As for the trans... that's just something I'm going to act like isn't there. devilsmile I'll just cross my fingers every time it shifts. lol
