First race since PTK kit install!! Sorry guys if you were expecting a LS1, but I do believe this is a great site. A friend of mine has a 99 ss with a tti kit and upon riding in it I was sold, I had to have a turbo kit. I switched from a Vortech to a turbo on my 96 cobra.
I just had it tuned this weekend and the friend with the SS stopped by to ride with me. We get on a local highway and the first thing we see is a Lightning. I could ofcourse beat them before but not this bad!! We were at about 50 and my friend waves for him to go, once he had about a car jump I step on it. Almost immediately I had pulled him 6-8 cars, I didnt even shift yet!! I slow down and the guy is amazed, he says he has never seen anything run from him like that before. He asks if it is nitrous or supercharger, we tell him turbo, he seemed dumbfounded. Anyways we do the same again and this time I go through two shifts, before I know it he is a good 20 cars back.
I really like this turbo and 3:27 gears on the highway....

No videos yet. This friday Im going to san antonio and we might try and shoot some videos at the PTK shop. I have too many races lined up as it is right now though, I hope to record them all. Two guys next to my work have a 750 and 600 bikes, friends heads cam LS1, friends heads cam LS1+100 shot, and a buddy's 440 dodge charger. Im going to be busy this summer, aslong as nothing breaks.

Congrats. I plan on running a PTK kit on my T/A. I know that they make great kits for stangs I and know that the LS1 kit wil be just as good as their others.

Yeah the name came from a friends ex-gf, I refered to her using that name after I heard about a stinky situation, LOL.
I just imagine how much power a LS1 could create with the same turbo I have. Geez just look on their website and look for the LT1 kit. I think a guy running that kit with a stroked 396 is the fastest LT1 in the nation? I think.
The LS1 will make sick power!
