I thought i couldnt get one because id cost over 6K but ha! it cost $2900 and $450 to tune it. i bought just the 2 actual turbos made for a 5.0($400) and my mechanic welded the pipes. right now theyre only runing at 4 psi each but they can go up to 15. ill get pics as soon as i install my camera software. :award :award

no stock motor, thats why its at 8 psi total. Im gonna work on it throughout the summer and hopefully put forged internals in so i can turnup the psi.

im kinda sceptical . not to mention why would someone running a twin turbo 5.0 leave their twin turbo set up in the junkyard?
