Quik's '02 twin turbo RCSB

[Q u i k]

well i over came my latest obstacle. I had issues with my PS reservoir hitting my collector. AFter going over all my options i found a bracket that relocates the pump over and up. You can see in the pics how much clearence i now have compared to prior. Also you can see my 304 stainless feeds and drains for the turbos

well its been a slow crawl lately with this build between the new truck and having a broken hand havent go much done. However today some work was done. Since im wanting to use cutouts on this build and wanted cutouts to be open whenever on track or on dyno. I wanted the least amount of restriction possible. I designed my setup opposite of how most cutouts are. this way the exhaust gases flow straight out when cut out open instead of going thru any exhaust. A typical cutout doesnt exit the exhaust 100% since it exits on a angle. This way the exhaust goes thru the angle part when the cutout is closed. Yes its some restriction but on street thats fine.
I also got the other side of wastegate merge started. What i did was use 1.5 tubing then step it up to 1.75 tubing then i miter cut and merged the tubing into the downpipe on an angle. doint this i now have 2" of merge. This should help with scalvening of the exhausts as it merges with the turbos exhaust, instead of creating a restriction by having it at a 90* angle. Having it merge on an angle allows the gases to still flow in same direction. THis should also help reduce any boost creep that is typically scene with 90* merges. Also stepping up in size helps with this as well since 1.5 tubing can only pass so much exhaust. Now with stepping up the size as i did it helps cheat the actual size of the wastegate to make it act like its a larger gate when opend. Also if some is wondering i have a 3.5" Electric cutout im going to use. So ill cut back the down tubes and then step it up in size to 3.5" to use the cutouts. Also the down tubes will then be cut even with the bottome of the frame
I had ran out of welding gas for evening but figured id post what i got done

also you can see my coil relocation once again

deffinitely a nice build, but why did you go with TTY head bolts? im sure there new so may not be a problem, but are you not concerned about lifting the head with them? or would it matter if they are ARP or stock gm head bolts, that if they are gonna lift it'll do it reguardless of what bolts are used?

to a mod can can someone merge the two threads together. some howe it made two threads. sorry

That is a work of art, way cool George.

Done, awesome craftsmanship post up a video or two. I know I've seen a few on YouTube of your truck that are great.

i look at a TTY bolt as a fuse. the bolt will stretch before any major damage occurs. if i was building something that was all out then id have studs probably O ringed block/heads. ive pushed 20 psi with last setup with no head lifting and in the hood of 800+rwhp without any issues with lifting, so im going to press my luck/ablity and try again and see results
