Hey Don I have a couple of questions. What material is the manifolds made of, cast iron, stainless steel, or junk mild steel??? My wife has a Envoy with the 5.3 and I am interested in doing a setup like this, will that kit fit? I'd like to set it up for 7lbs and I think at 12-14lbs the engine will have a very short lifespan. I hope you're not towing anything with that amount of boost.
I have'nt seen you up at the track recently, where have you been?? I've been looking foreward to seeing some of you're famous launches
shoot me a pm and let me know what it costs. You're buddy.Greg

I've been working on alot of projects lately.This wed we will be there for a rental.
This turbo kit is all stainless. Here is the link -http://www.trickperformanceproducts.com/turbo_frontpage_intro.htm
I'll have to look at an Envoy engine bay to get an idea if it will fit.Probly will.As for boost I've had this thing at 15lbs so far without a problem except the tranny can't hold a shift. I'm not too worried about towing,just have to be smart about going up hill's and not full boost it the whole way.
