Default APS F body 427 cube twin turbo system - coming soon

Guys, APS is in the process of packaging a specific twin turbo system designed for large cube F body applications, 427 engines in particular. The larger twin turbo system will include custom TDO6 turbochargers with a 65 lb per minute mass air flow capibility and larger 1.06 turbine housings. The power potential of the turbo system will be around 1000 rwhp (dyno jet) on a fully built forged engine with the correctly sized fuel system and engine tuning. At this time I estimate that the price will be under $7000 for the first batch of twin turbo systems delivered so PM me if you're interested in one of these systems.

Thanks,

Peter

Peter I hope you make upgrades for the current users of your kits. I still havent heard back from you about the inlet duct upgrades. Will these turbochargers fit with the current f body system's? There is alot of us with 402's. And I was under the impression you were going to offer an upgraded turbo for the current f body system.

The larger turbo will fit the existing F body system with a new smaller starter motor (more on that later), I will start a new thread on the turbo upgrade option in the future as I do not want to pollute this thread.

Thanks,

Peter

Wow sounds impressive .Was very tempted to go 427 but would think the 6.0 block shouldn't be bored out that much so that would require I think lsx block ? Oh well think can be happy with ordered 408 and current standard turbos. Just hit things with a 100 or 200 shot if feel the need for much more than 850rwhp or buy a vette and put an aps kit on it. But that is for sure distant future idea.

I realize that, however they're a mitsu 20g turbo vs. a ball bearing garrett. I figured the 35's were going to be offered since they already have them in the c6z kit. If we're paying 7k for an intro price, i'd at least hope they were ball bearing.

Imho GT35's would be far too expensive for the majority of the F body owners..............I'd like to see the 427 cube F body twin turbo system stay very affordable and under 7k for the entire twin turbo system.

for someone who plunks down the dough for a 427 they should be able to afford to put gt35R on the car as well

I hope it's soon. I'm ready to turn it up but not sure how far I can push it before the inlet ducts collapse.
