Nah,
it's an STS Turbo Systems (rear mounted turbo) based kit that was tuned and customized a bit by Cartek Racing, built 346 LS1 and basically full weight (plus a roll bar).Congrats Kenny and Cartek.

LOL. Those STSs make great power. I'm curious which size turbo they are using?

The STS makes for a great daily driver. I have been in awful stop-and-go driving, etc. No big deal. Without changing the cam, power is there at idle. So I can crawl along at 5 mph, off and on the clutch.
The only problem that I've had using this car as a daily driver is that I can only enjoy it for a couple of seconds at a time! But the quick burst into triple digits when traffic opens up is worth it. Too bad for that poor Dodge hemi driver the other day who got frisky...
Now: Kenny...you are amazing! I think I've watched that video 15x so far. I assume that you are loading the engine on the torque converter vs. the brakes to build boost on the line?
And, like the others...why the hood when our intake is in the back? Nice construction, though...and I LOVE the RMR nose piece.
