had to order some spal fans for the trans cooler cuz the TH400 was climbing up to 200 degrees and one of the fan wires shorted out and caught on fire but i caught it all in time. thank god !!

put 15 miles on it to make sure itd run well and the TH400 is quite fun !

just retuned =)

I recently changed my setup out to a truck manifold crossover. LQ4 with COan TH400 and Pro torque converter. built everything 9" 91 octane with methanol injectoin. Nick @ newtech did an outstanding job. 723WHP 6XX torque. this car pulls like a damn freight train.






Vid and pics from my Droid X . sorry for the low quality.

What turbo are you running now? Why did you get rid of your tubular setup for a truck manifold. I've always loved your car.

Garrett GT4580R. I would run the Tubular still but I gotta pay bills. I spun the bearings in this motor and had to fund the rebuild AGAIN so I had to get money some how. THE garrett was sponsored by someone I do business with a Lot so i got a pretty hefty discount on it.

Thanks for the info, do you have any pictures or comparisons to your old turbo? I'm curious on the physical size difference between the gt4580 and the st80. It this t4 or t6?
