Smile My new single turbo build !!!

Whats guys ??

I finally started working on my ZO6 with single ST80 Turbo this custom kit we're building here in our shop very tight fit since I'm going with 3.5inch downpipe and also keeping the A/C

Engine :
Diamond Piston, Compstar rods, stock crank and the rest of blah blah.
Brute Speed cam (I love it thanks Bob)
for now running stock heads but going with PRC TSP 227 heads in the near future..
LS6 Intake and stock TB for now.
ARP Everywhere. (atleast 50rwhp)
Borla Stinger catback.
8:5 compression for 93 octane 13-15psi and 18+psi on C16.

RPM build T56 Transmission I like the taller ratio over M12 for turbo car.
Stock rear for now 3.42
I have Spec stg 3+ on the car now but I'm thinking swapping Mcloed clucth when Spec says bye bye which is very soon

Car made 371rwhp with low compression engine just Borla catback and Halltech CAI which very good with stock headers and everything and low timing.



Fuel:
RSI hanger with two walbow 255 pumps and also thinking about adding Magnafuel pump 4301
Siemens 83lbs Injectors.
Fast fuel rails.
Fuel Lab fuel Pressuer.

Dewitt Radiator and fans and going with EWP very soon gotta keep it cold.
MT 305/35/18 on IForged Evolution.
couple of Carravaggio parts here and there.
Defi Gauges fuel press and boost. (great gauges but damn exprensive)


Goal from this setup is 680-750rwhp on pump and over 850rwhp on race gas of course with all the 1200+rwhp builds I've been seeing 850rwhp seems very slow..
and to run 9s and over 145mph 1/4 with full weight A/C stereo car.

Sorry for the crappy pics and dirty car but more to come..













The old setup made 559rwhp on 9psi and 701rwhp on 16psi 109vp fuel
STS Twin turbo kit

Are you aware of of the Hinson Stainless hot side that is available for the C5?
Would save a lot of time!
I've owned one in the past-very nice!

I agree Hinson hot side is a great looking and will save alot of time but believe me it will not save money,
shipping the hot side to overseas will cost alot.
