Speed Inc TT, HKE 427, Firehawk
Year: 2000
Make: Pontiac
Price: $50000
Mileage: 50000
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): NC
Color: Black
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive
LS Engine?: Car has LS engine
The full build (motor, trans, turbo kit, rear, and any new parts listed) has approximately 500 miles on them. I took delivery of the car around April of 2010, took it to the Ocean City, MD spring cruise, and then have not had time to take it out much since with a new baby (actually a 9 month old now).
The quick details on the car are: custom Speed Inc. twin turbo setup (twin billet 67mm turbos) with tons of extras (1150+ rwhp), HKE 427 with ET heads, G-Force T-56, BS3 engine management wired with the factory computer (will pass plug in emissions tests as I did here in NC this year!), 6 piston Wilwood front brakes, Eboost2 boost controller with on the fly changeability.
As noted above, the car was built primarily as a street car, but I wanted to be able to change boost easily and safely. To that end, we went with an Eboost2 controller which allows on the fly changes (up and down buttons) with 6 current settings ranging from base boost of 8psi (750 rwhp) to high boost 23 psi (1150+ rwhp). To accommodate on the fly changes, the car is equipped with BS3 with dual fuel capability. The car runs two separate fuel systems. The stock tank with a fully built fuel setup (walboro in-tank, external filter, braided fill and return lines, billet rails, regulator, and smaller injectors) runs regular pump premium gas and acts as the main fuel system. Under light to medium load and at idle the car runs on premium fuel only. Once at a certain point in the BS3 tables, the secondary completely separate fuel system kicks in and the computer splits the fueling requirements between the two systems. The secondary system consists of a custom built fuel cell in spare tire area which houses a few gallons of C16 and a fully built fuel setup (pump, external filter, braided fill and return lines, billet rails, regulator, and larger injectors). This allows you to go from 8 psi to 23 psi without stopping, changing tunes, etc. Just hit the Eboost2 up button and then hit the gas.
Full details of all the new parts included in the build are listed below, but basically everything on the car was new with the build down to most of the suspension. Below is the link to the Speed Inc. build thread on LS1Tech and a video of the car on the dyno. There are several pictures of the car in that thread and I can get more as requested although the car is currently in winter storage so it will take a few days to get those pictures. I am located in the Greensboro, NC area. I can deliver the car on a trailer (also for sale) within a reasonable distance for the right price.

The only things deleted are ac and abs?
You said existing parts, as in the car still has the stock seats in it or they are included with the sale? If not the stock seats what's in it right now? Some pictures on the vehicle's condition would be nice also, I'm assuming stock paint?

Lythropus,
I have uploaded a few pictures here:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/album.php?albumid=17990
I have the full high resolution images as well as some others if you are interested. Just shoot me a PM with your email address and I'll get them to you ASAP.
As far as your other question, in the engine bay, the A/C and ABS have been deleted, along with AIR, EGR, and the cruise control. The car still wears all the original body panels and original paint. Also included in that is the original Firehawk hood, badges, and chrome Firehawk wheels with centercaps. The interior still has the stock carpet, stock seats with functioning lumbar adjustments, factory instrument cluster, etc. The only changes there are the addition of the Harlan shift light in the A-pillar (not really noticeable unless you look for it), the Eboost2 guage in the left most air vent on the drivers side (by the drivers side A-pillar), and an aftermarket radio. I have both the Firehawk floor mats and the original plain floor mats.
If you have any further questions and would like to discuss over the phone instead, please feel free to shoot me a PM and I'll respond with my phone number.

I'm sorry to see it for sale seeing that you really did not get to enjoy it. The asking price is very fair IMO as I know what the build cost.
good luck and hope all is well otherwise
