we will find out soon. we finally got the Transmission and Diff from RPM that was supposed to show up 3+ weeks ago. Great guys none the less, but I wish they told us it will be this long before we get the stuff.. we would have at least finished the engine break in. oh well

I would still like to thank them for the great deal I got from them and I appreciate the fact that Jeremy always answered my calls.

I would also like to thank Bret@Racing Engine Design for the great work on the engine, heads, and the whole car. The took care of a lot of the shitty work from other shops that worked on the car.....

car has about 400miles now.. drives ok. still running E85 but will be switching back to 91oct sometime this week


we were hoping to hit 1000whp, but not sure if we will be able to achieve that with the UPP kit and those 58mm's turbos. I guess we will find out soon. I am thinking about swapping it with the TTIX kit and add nitrous on top. but I dont know. maybe just get some bigger turbos and keep the kit.

The plan now is to see how far we can go with the UPP kit. do some work on the suspension since its very important with a car that will be making that much power. and I am thinking also about adding nitrous on top with it. Then later (at least 9 months) might go with the TTIX.

Engine and drivetrain should handle 1400+whp with no problems


Car was built for the streets, but I will try to take it to the track and see what it will run. it should be a 8sec car assuming I can drive it and can fit some sticky tires there. I doubt it though.......:D


Pics/vids will come soon!

car made 820whp@14psi with the older setup on E85 (402ci, ~12:0 compression):thumb:

an older vid when it was at 8#

I know it's been awhile but and confirmed numbers on the upp kit yet and how about burning issues with the fenders

Very cool. Should be able to reach that number with enough boost but, curious to why your leaving E85 and going to 91/93 though. Would be a lot easier if you stuck with the fuel.



And Birdmanta.... if your worried about heat, once you install any turbo kit on any car, I would buy some stick on heat sheilding. That should save your fenders, or anything that matter from getting too hot. Also, blankets/coating/wrapping anything greatly helps. I do not have a UPP kit but I have something that is kinda heat pron...and I fixed any issue I had with all of the above.

I have no idea. I got rid of my kit. I dont want to go into details on why I did because I agreed not to talk about my experience. The fender will get hot, to a point where I got worried especially since it was carbon fiber ( I had Z06 fenders on mine) It is fine for like couple hours of normal driving......
