These turbo manifold also fit perfectly into Ls swapped g-body’s. We’ve used these budget manifolds for two builds! One of our cars runs 6.5’s with this forced performance manifold and forced performance 78/75! You can’t beat them for the money! Awesome content guys, look forward to seeing what this thing can do 🤘
@@theshark2804 there’s a few ways to do it, some mount the wastegate to the hot side exhaust housing of the turbo. Forced performance actually sells a hotside that’s already welded which makes it super easy. My personal car has the wastegate on the crossover pipe. I believe that’s the way they did the truck also. Both ways work great!
@@schmittbox636 well I’m looking at doing a Huron system since I wouldn’t have to do any welding. I just looked at forced induction and they are super expensive. I’m good. I’ll do the Huron system with a gt45 and call it a day
Building a turbo junkyard 5.3 right now to drop in my 2010 chevy silverado approaching 200k, so far I got most the parts: Camshaft - BTR stage 2 turbo cam kit with titanium springs and retainers and pushrods, gaskets and cam bolt - 836.51 Fuel Pump - AEM e-85 compliant - 160.00 Fuel pressure regulator - 130.00 Turbo - T4 Turbocharger kit for GT45 Universal Turbo Kit Perfect For 4.0L-6.0L engine comes with turbo, accessories, front mount and injectors - 713.00 Turbo log manifolds - FP T4 log manifold around 400 for both sides Anyone have any pointers? First turbo build I am doing by myself, all I have worked on in the past is DSMs (Eagle Talons, Plymouth Lasers, GSTs, GSXs) I appreciate any guidance to make my build the best experience I can make it. Thank you for your time, and thank you for sharing your video!
Hey man, you are always welcome to shoot us an email through our website and we are happy to help you out! You are starting off with more than most people, that should be an easy 500+ hp setup without too much effort.
How did yall get that manifold to clear the a/c filters on the 99s just tryed to install same manifold had to grind it above the filters so much I cracked it still wouldn’t clear
@murkymurph8355 came off a newer 1500, this fan setup was out of a 2010ish tahoe. You need to order one of the larger 34" radiators to use the factory chevy e fans.
Forced Inductions or Forced Performance? Two different companies! I don't think we plan on selling any more crossover pipes, they are easy to DIY and the price point on these was a bit high. Basically just a couple straights with two 90's.
Trimix gas (generally don't want to run 75/25 on stainless) and solid stainless wire. You caaaaan but most folks don't keep a separate bottle of more obscure gas. We use a Tig and 100% argon here for anything stainless.

You too man, let us know when you are ready for some fresh turbos! Thanks for the kind words.
How are you mounting the wastegate. Oh crap this turbo has a wastegate flange? Where do I find this.

Can't wait to see this thing one tire fire all the way down the track
Soon my pretty, cooler weather is coming!
Got the same manifold. I have a few hours into cleaning up all the casting boogers on mine.
Yep, it's a dirty ol' casting for sure. We spent a bit of time on the die grinder to make her a little less mangy.
I have an 02 Tahoe with the 4.8 in it that I'm gonna be swapping a 6.0 in it and doing the e fans swap too
Nice, make sure you check out our videos of the Boosthoe for inspiration! They get a lot more fun with boost.
@7:45 look at the carbon buildup on the throttle body
Yeah Buddy! I love everything about this truck!
Thanks again for the injectors!!!
Absolutely love this content !
Thanks for the kind words, we love building fun stuff :)
What v band flange and clamp did y’all use on turbo manifold .

Great content! What vehicle did E-fans come off? Thank you.

Is forced inductions going to ever get any turbo LS crossover pipes back in stock? Maybe for christmas? Like last year
Forced Inductions or Forced Performance? Two different companies! I don't think we plan on selling any more crossover pipes, they are easy to DIY and the price point on these was a bit high. Basically just a couple straights with two 90's.
Forced Performance is an older company than Forced Inductions, they just liked the name ;)
LOL I'm sorry I meant Forced performance. I should know the difference because I have owned turbos from both companies.
Like, comment, then watch 😎. Boost on!
Thanks Eric ❤️❤️❤️
Subbed
Can I weld stainless with regular mig?
What settings should I use I have a titanium harbor freight 140 wit 75/25
Trimix gas (generally don't want to run 75/25 on stainless) and solid stainless wire. You caaaaan but most folks don't keep a separate bottle of more obscure gas. We use a Tig and 100% argon here for anything stainless.
Does that turbo have integrated wastegate mounting ?
Yes! It has a flange so you can bolt a TiAL F38 directly onto it. It has worked perfect from 6psi up to the 16psi we are currently at.

A hint of bend, the best choice is to swap to a later style setup though. We torched the soft line twice on this thing.
Yea I had bent the line I was talking about the filters there self the header wouldn’t clear for me
