I will definitely go with a 30+ rows thermostatic cooler eventually. Looks like there will be no update from me for a week since I will be out of town. Happy early Thanksgiving everyone

25 row was more than sufficient on my old TT setup, mounted behind IC, but I had a mishimoto radiator which helped. I never saw oil temps over 220 under any conditions

I like your intercooler setup and piping. That's very similar to the direction I am going with my new configuration. Looking good.

If you are referring to 1slow370, he's not running any FI kit. He went a different route and built a NA monster. Currently holds the record for non-FI HP. Although he probably could have went FI and it'd been cheaper

Sub'd, looking forward to this

Got a chance to drive through Stone Mountain park in Georgia and snapped a couple of pictures.

Not quite. I wanted to visit my family in Georgia so I removed the intercoolers and kept my charge pipes to run G3 intake style. I had to do a retune for the 2.75" maf but it wasnt too hard.

I was gonna say, "damn you work fast!"

Back on track, I started working on mounting turbos. Knowing that the driver side will be most difficult due to limited space, I decided to tackle that first. After 6 hours worth of busting and cussing, using sharpies, duck tapes, and with a little bit of luck I managed to get the turbo to about where I want it to be (it was not easy with the car up on jackstands instead of a lift). I was careful not to place the turbo too low, while leaving enough space in the front for air filters. My concern is the wastegate actuator being the lowest point.

Decided to go with Tial Q BOV's instead of Synchronic.

Tacked the extension pipe

Turbos sat up as high as it will go, 1/2" clearance from frame and transmission.

I am working on modifying the wastegate actuator bracket to allow more ground clearance.

Yup that actuator position is no-bueno you can always go external though.

Definitely needs to go external

Nice work...and yes the passenger side is the PITA. When I did this back in the day on my 350z, I figured external wastegates would be the best option:

I found that the passenger turbo clocking was difficult but it worked out:

You will find that the IC pipes will be a bit of a pain, but it looks like you put the turbos a bit further back than I did, so it may not be too bad.

Good luck with the build, and post a lot of pictures.
