Mr. Postman brought this.

After playing around with induction ideas, my friend twisted my arm and compounds decided upon. This is an HT3B which is the atmospheric turbo in the set (larger of the two).

Steel sleeves were cut so when the plate was welded to box the frame, cinching the bolts down would be further supported by these spacers

Then I bought this. Had to mock it up for motivation.

The winch was in Western NC. My friend and I hopped in my GTO and rode tail of the dragon to get it. It is a renowned motorcycle destination. 312 curves in 11 miles. Unfortunately is was raining. With 400 HP in a RWD vehicle, no fun was had on that road.

Next was finding and appropriate intercooler. The frame had to be massaged but a candidate was found.
