I bet the kit comes out at at least $8K... probably closer to $10K

Man that's crazy. 600+RWHP on 93 octane pump gas and almost 800RWHP on race gas. I bet if you ran a cutout you MIGHT be able to hit 800RWHP.

I'm glad to see everything come together for you.

I bet the kit will be sort of expensive. Those headers are pretty nice, the 80MM turbo, and the water to air intercooler are all kinda expensive pieces.

hopefully the price will be low
TTi usauly keeps their kit prices low, but if you go buy parts from them they rape you

anyways i was thinking wonder if you could relocate the air conditioner where the altinator is and the altinator were it is on the street kit.

is there enough room?



and their is no doubt if you put a cutout on it it WILL be makeing more then 800rwhp

car will be driven daily on pump gas, so only 666rwtq then.. and i will use what its' rolling on now (285) bfg g force drag radials.. so far i have 27*11.5 qtps for the track.

i think it would hold easy 725 or so on 100 octane

smokinhawk, again the kit is NOT maxed out.. i chickened out there.. can go much more boost and of course could lose the muffler

Nice final numbers, and thanks for sharing the info on the max timing...

What gas is the 115?

It's very interesting to see all the big effort 346ci cars running about the same boost and making approximately the same power... I'm at 17psi (thru a T400 unlocked) and hit a max of 746rwhp, Harlan is 820 on a C16 tune on a Eddy Current dyno, Rob is 760, all the numbers are starting to show the capabilities of a nicely built 346/348ci motor.

MM I would leave the heads alone, you can upgrade them at the end of the year. My 6.0 heads flow 298/219 they are nothing special and I am running 2.02/1.57's and running .100 longer Manley valves... nothing special.

Congrats again.

That's pretty amazing - especially for pump gas!!! Glad to see someone is running a water/air intercooler for a daily driver, too. Congrats!

He is running a stock crank I believe

Turbos/blowers are WAY easier on parts than the equivalent amount of nitrous. (nice progressive slow hit vs a 300RWTQ jump in 150rpms

Thats an amazing setup Frosty,so its a stock crank but what about rods/pistons and cr..
I'd like some info on keeping the heads in place too..

This is something I'd lke to build slowly...
Like Mightmouse,I'd be more than happy with 650RWH/660RWT on pump gas
