Atomic,

]I hae a question I talked to this guy on line that says he has a TT set up on his C5Z and the turbines are set right before his X pipe. Have you heard of anything like that before. Am skeptical never seen this set up always either rear or in bay but just wanted to confirm or debunk.


by the way this project looks sexy as hell cant wait to see the final numbers.

On the Twin setups they go right where the transmission bell housing would be on a conventional car... if that is what he was talking about then he was correct.. if he was saying down farther in the tunnel, I don't see how it would be possible.

WOW that seems to be a very nice set up but it limits you to the size of the turbines, yet it does keep clean air flowing over tubines themselves helping in the cooling in conjunction with the air to water cooler u might have ran at the time.

Thanks I have nitrous set up but I am seriously considering something like this. The reason I haven't dropped the hammer is that here in AZ where am from heat is a killer. You see the turbo cars either early in the morning or late at night but during the day they are put away because a 102* summer temp easily makes for a 200+ road temperature in the middle of the day.Your old set up is something I can probably do this and minimize the engine bay heat issues that a lot of the guys I know deal with.

Thank You

I think if I had my old setup with the street Air-to-water setup that IPS makes (has a heat exchanger too) I would have been fine. They have that kit on a ~900ish rwhp Vortech car and it drives around with the AC on with no issues.
