Turbo
After much debate I finally narrowed my search down to just two that were both great fits on a twinscroll 500hp EFI 930. The two were the Garrett GT3582R and the BorgWarner S300SX 83-75.
The BW won me over due to it's dependable journal brg with oil only cooling setup. The fact that it can make up to 310 ft-lb of torque at 2000 rpms and 5 psi of boost helped me with my decision as well as the potential to make 487 ft-lbs at 4000 rpm at 15 psi of boost...hope I can keep it between the ditches

Cams timed and f'wrd oil cooler thermo out
Long weekends are great for my projects! I got the cams timed and pulled the front oil cooler lines off the thermo to clean it up and rebuild it.

New Turbo came in
I had initially ordered a nice Borg but after waiting months for it to arrive I switched my order over to a Garrett GT3582R T4 twin scroll ported cold side shroud and happy I did cuz it's a real nice unit.

The stock pistons & cylinders were fine so I went back with them at around 7.1:1 CR. I did however put in a set of high lift cams along with some race springs for a little added fireworks
