Took Two Try’s - fabrication hits a snag but she’s finally running!

Stage one of the twin turbo awd Escalade project hits a milestone! She’s running fun with the hot side fab work done and now just waiting on a custom maf housing to arrive in the mail before finishing up the charge piping.
Twin turboing the L9h motor is similar to the ls3 but comes factory with flex fuel pump and injectors which flow significantly more fuel than most. The stock fueling is good for around 650whp which is right around the point which we need to upgrade to forged internals.
The awd Escalade with turbos should be an awesome street truck! We are running t04e turbos for now. Slightly small and should run out of steam right around 5800-6k rpms… which is exactly where we have our shift points set.
If the t04e’s spool too fast for any reasonable highway driving the plan will be to upgrade to some gt3582’s.
The L9h is almost identical to the earlier l92 engine. The L9h was found in the Escalade, Denali and some Chevy trucks.
