Default Custom STS System...

Here are a few pics of a custom system built at STS. It is a '92 chevy truck that has a 502 crate motor.

Here is the engine compartment before the turbo system, clean but NA sucks!





Here is the pre-turbo exhaust system





New head pipes and custom y-pipe





And now the fun part... GT4508R Turbo





Exhaust inlet and begining of air intake...



4" side exit exhaust



TiAL 60mm wastegate



Finished exhaust before coating



Finished turbo assembly with black high temp coating (twin air filters in the bed with a custom shield)



Finished intake pipes before coating



Engine compartment pipe with BOV

very nice! the elbow at the TB turned out really good, those oval ones are tricky to do.

Yes, I beleive that GM refers to the crate motor as a ramjet 502.
