Thanks John, still undecided, but I dont want to be taking it apart for that shit either!

It is a 3". To use it I need to change the flange on it to a on center flange. I may be getting the B & G hot side, coated with a 3.5" down pipe and a bigger wastegate. I have a 35mm Evolution now and I dont think it will be big enough. It comes with the correct flange also.

The turbo is a T-series HP76 compressor, ceramic ball bearing, F1-68 turbine wheel with a tangential undivided .81 A/R housing. Basically a T76 with an F1-68 turbine wheel.

That set up should be good for 1000 CHP of air on that motor. I have AFR 185's and will re-use my Cartech upper/Saleen ported lower intake and likely my current Comps Cam. It is a XE264HR, has 114 deg lobe seperation and with 1.7's the lift is in the .544 range. It has great manners and pulls awesome with the Novi until you lift. I have a Eagle 4340 crank and am getting the H beam 2000's.

Pistons are my big question now. What is a good compression for this motor? My heads are 58 cc's and have had a light cut, so with the Mahle's I was going to get, that would put me in the 9.5:1 range. That may be to high for this boost/power level! I have an almost new set of SRP low comps in that 306. They would put me in the mid to high 8's for comporession and that may be the way to go here!

That intercooler is going to be fun to mount! Oh, and I am keeping the AC! That should make this even more fun!
