All i have for turbo part is the turbo, building engines i am good at and familar but boost i am not familar with.

I need to find sungle turbo manifolds, or point me in right direction to make my own, also what kind of carb
Any tips will be nice

These look okay http://www.ebay.com/itm/OBX-Turbo-Manif ... 62&vxp=mtr but I read they are made from light gauge low grade stainless steel. I plan on doing a cheap turbo set up by just flipping my stock exhaust manifolds and making a "Y" pipe to the turbo. My best advice would be to go check out http://www.theturboforums.com. any questions you have is probably covered somewhere on the site.

or for ideas check out Horsepower TV episodes 1,2 and 7 from the 2012 season project "sucker punch" gave me ideas on how to turbo my Malibu wagon

Assumed it was a Chevy :doh: but you can flip manifolds/headers on any 355 to make "Y" pipe it in front or leave the conventional mounted and "Y" pipe under car for your hot side. What are your goals for the 355? After reading some DIY turbo setups on turboforums I can't believe I haven't done it yet. Saving up and planning to turbo my wagon summer time. I'm gonna try to document the insrall in my "BuWagone" thread in the wagon section.

I assumed it was a chevy also but being posted in the Olds section made me wonder.
