6-16-04 update:

I finished all the wiring, and hand-made a custom 3" downpipe for the turbo. That went really well! Much easier to make than I had anticipated.

Okay, okay! So you want some pics?

The first pic shows the turbo mounted onto the exhaust manifold. In this case, I had to replace the passenger side exhaust manifold with one that had a turbo mounting on it. There is a crossover pipe which runs from the driver's side manifold directly into the passenger side manifold right below the turbo. All the engine ehxaust is directed through the turbo, and out the rear of the turbo.

The second pic shows the exhaust downpipe I made bolted to the turbo.

The third pic shows the new exhaust system compared to the stock system.

I'll have more photos updated in my Chevy photo album soon.
