i have an idea. you could put the blower where the turbo sat then move the turbo to where your stock ler is. so basically your turbo is your ler!!

Here are some pics of the custom cowl hood I started to build today. The hood was from a 88 cougar and already had a hole from a previous 351w air cleaner. I also will be installing the turbocoupe scoops the cowl is 4.5 inches tall. Also you will be able to see a piece of the blower piping. Here are some pics

Great Work! I don't know if you can do this due to opening the hood and movement but could you round the ends of the hole for the pipe?
Is it goin to be a lift off? Its goin to be a B as heavy as they are if it is.
Do you have solid Motor Mounts?

Its not gonna be a lift off hood and I have stock motor mounts, but I made custom braces that go from the chassis to the engine and it does not move.

Man, you must have a whole hell of a lot more money than I did when I was 16...of course I didn't have a car when I was 16 either. Or good garage access.

Little update on the car well i connected the wg to stock setting and now im seeing 20psi but the bov is open always. Also In park i rev it not even hard and i see 10psi right away. I went for a cruise and did a 2 block burnout nonstop and could easily have gone more this thing pulls HARD. The boost now kicks in off ilde and the feeling is awsome for anyone who doubted that this was not gonna work shame on you. Will keep you posted.
