Like cracker said, my main problem is the inlet side of the turbos. If the new APS K member some how moves the motor mount bracket than there shouldn't be any issues for making inlets. Keep us posted.

the new APS BMR k-member uses both the noram bmr mounts.
it has the turbo k-member eninge mount for the front. and the standard bmr k-member for the rear.

search it. Barnat came up with the design.

Yeah I've seen it but not in a car yet, my driverside turbo sits about 1/2 inch behind the "U" shaped part where the motor mount bolt goes through.. So it's hard to make anything go stright at it. Now if you can some how **** the inlet at an angle then you should be fine..

Post up pics when you can

So, these 35's are not going to fit period with the regular BMR K-member? I dont like the sound of buying a whole new K-member as well. But if it requires it, then I dunno. I guess. lol

^^^^ to be honest with you. idk.

what i do know is i have the APS BMR custom k-member.
it gives so much more room.
you can get rid of the crush silcone piece APS used.

If all goes well. i will have a complete kit for sale.
and a complete f-body APS system for sale. like a extreme GT35 kit. lol

Wow, when I talked to a foundry about making some APS GT35R turbine housings they weren't wanting to make me less than 10 sets. It was gonna be some serious coin.

Sweet Big Bird that will work out perfectly just let me know when you are ready. I still have a ways to go on my build but it is looking better. At the rate I keep adding all these little things here and there I might have to find a second job. LOL People on here didn't lie when they said building a 1000 horse machine was going to be expensive.

Hope to have some dyno numbers for you guys real soon. going on a c5 ( i know not a f-body) but a c5 that has had the stock f-body turbos. then extreme trubos ( broke both sets) now has these bad boys. it is a build 347 that made over 800 wheel on the extreme.

We need dyno numbers, like you said, and video!

My car has a pair, dont get me wrong. C5 has dyno grapsh form 3 different aps sets of turbos. so it will give as all alot of numbers

and mine will have numbers as soon as it is done. and i am pushing 1500 out of this bitch.

working on getting a gt37 inside these bad boys. the f-bodies would love them. but i think the c6 Z06 communtity would also.

Yeah, I must agree, it would be interesting to see dyno graphs from the same engine with the base APS kit, extreme APS kit and then the GT35R kit. You're aiming for 1500HP?! Damn, talk about taking it to the limit!

GT37Rs would be perfect for a Warhawk!
