Should be done by the weekend.
Has our low boost turbo kit installed with water to air intercooler and GTX Garrett turbo.
Using a Team Tied instead of the Cat secondary.
Really excited to give it a go.:face-icon-small-hap

This is a converted Cat, so we are using the Cat 162x2.6. And the Cat skid.
I like the looks of the track.

Did you weigh both motors? I know the Cat with the balancing shaft is heavy. Wondering if the nytro motor is lighter or not.

Didnt weigh them, but the Nytro motor is way smaller in comparison. I think I heard the Yammie motor is 30-35 lbs lighter.
The Yammie motor sits much more central in the chassis which will make the sled feel way lighter too.

I think it would be possible if the motor was placed more upright than the Nytro motor. The Nytro motor is laid back a lot and come really close to the chaincase.
It would be very cool with the Apex mill that is for sure. Maybe we will see if it fits. There are lots of old Apexes around with good motors.

Nice, is this the first time using a GTX, or have you been using them on other builds?
