thanks guys, she is running really cool. Next mods up are Clutch and intercooler (just so I don't have to go through so much methanol). Runs perfect after 1500 miles.
"cowboyup" you will love that kit, tons of power and reliable. My dad has a v3 on his 07 z06 and hasn't had to do one thing except change the oil after 8k miles!

blwnNbstd that'll be perfect, plenty of power with that setup! what c/h/e you thinking?

Yes, its been 1500 miles still on stock clutch. It's holding up just fine. I ordered a centerforce dyad, don't need it quite yet just planning for the future.

Amazing power, very impressive. Question, how do you embed the YouTube vids like that? I mean, not just a link.

Sweet setup. Just goes to show that the rear Mount turbo works great. Tho that is one helluva stock clutch. You sure there is not an aftermarket one in there? My stock clutch was slipping with just 440rwhp. That and the clutch only had 8000 miles on it. I just don't see a stocker holding 840rwhp. Sorry

Then again thinking of it you may have bought my friends z06 he got rid of. It had a ram twin disc in it and built up rear end and shafts. Lol

Almost 2k miles and still tearing up the street gotta love that! I'm all for Great Power, but when you can add reliability with that, that's when it's great!

Spahny72 Thank you. And great meeting you yesterday, nice Car ! Let me know when you want to do that Procharger

Scramblerman. On the Stock Clutch, ur right surprised as well shes holding up. Were doing the Air to Water intercooler and DYAD late next week, i'll let everyone know if there is a (other than stock) clutch in there

Any new #'s on this??? Im considering a turbo kit when I get back from my deployment.

And I am surprised about the stock clutch, mine was slipping and sticking to the floor at 400 RWHP.

Update. Car has a total of 2500 miles on build.
Has a Dyad Centerforce Clutch and a Custom Air/Water Intercooler system.
IAT's are now below ambient when in full boost with the Intercooler and Meth.

Still fast as hell !

Driven on the nice Colorado days like today.

Stock can hold that if you aren't ripping gears, I have full exhaust, cam, fast 92 and my clutch only acts up when I rip it . Cruising the stock one will hold for a while.

What's the hot and cold piping size? Details on the A2W I/C? Could an A2A setup work?

Is that a billet or standard 78mm compressor wheel?

pretty cool, I hope you are ready when you need a new short block because regardless of what anyone says about its all in the tune. The motor is a ticking time bomb at that power level.. The factory cranks can take a beating but the pistons and rods are another story... GL and badass...
