edit: sorry, got the two cars of his confused when posting this thread. LT1 is the car with the 2JZ.....
************************************************** *******
Went to an auto glass place to pick up a tube of urethane.......he liked my car and told me to come look at his. He had a 1999 Bird and his brother had one of those 2000 30th Anniversary T/A's (white with blue stripes).
1999 LT1 Firebird 88mm turbo put down 610 RWHP @ 25 psi. Interesting hybrid.
30th...stock.

I'd like to see the pictures. If you can't upload them, try www.tinypic.com
That should work. Interesting motor swap!

Think if you had that 88 on a real motor, aka any ls platform and at 25lbs, what it would put out...hell of a lot more than only 600hp and thats probably at what, 7000rpms?
Talk about lag city.... here we come!
It would sound like
too. Imagine hearing that thing take off at a light, I could care less it just whooped my *** (with all that lag, it may not), Id be laughing the next 2 miles down the road after hearing an fbody sound like a toy remote control car. Its like cutting off the ***** of the beast IMO. ![Nono](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/nono.gif)
And for real, tired of plug changes? How often does that happen? Is the car not tuned and burning plugs like a ****? If you are a true muscle car junky, you wouldnt care!
Wonder how much weight was just added and cutting down the cubes by more than half...no replacement for displacement IMO.
At least its a clean install. Looks legit.

I respect any skilled workmanship, but the excuse of tired of plug changes is stretching it a little. He can do a complete motor swap and put a straight six where a v-8 used to be, but couldn't do a plug change?
Kudos for being different, but that's where it ends.

My brother's old car (94 Supra) with a 62mm made 670whp at 28psi. He either has a crap tune or doesn't have a 88mm on it haha.
