Default C5 Huron Twin Turbo Build

Finally starting my build after finishing wifes car so I'll post it up now. Car is a 2004 C5 6 speed. Started out an A&A supercharger car making 635hp on a stock LS1. Ran a 10.99@134 the one time I've taken it to the track. I saw a great deal on a new Huron kit so I sold all the A&A stuff. Practically entire car is coming apart and a paint color change too. This will be my biggest all at once build. Been collecting parts id guess for 6 months.

Thompson iron 5.7 with K1 crank and rods, Diamond pistons, ARP everywhere
Summit stg 2 turbo cam
317 heads w/ ARP studs and LS9 gaskets
Johnson link bar lifters
BTR springs
Precision Shaft 1000hp aluminum driveshaft
3.42 3 rib diff with C6Z guts
​​Mcleod RXT w/ stock 120k mile T56 lol
ECS torque tamer and diff brace
Solid mounts everywhere
Brett specd return fuel system using stock C6Z fuel pump module and intank 525
Bosch 1000 injectors
Huron Speed twin turbo kit w/ Precision 6262s, Huron wastegates, Turbosmart bov
Haltech package w/flexfuel from Brett running alongside stock pcm for emissions ****.
ACP carbon fiber heat extractor hood (******* expensive but the fit is amazing) along with an authentic Tigershark bumper for some good airflow
Widebody running C6Z wheels with 345/30r19s
Corbeau A4 seats
Doing a complete color change to House of Kolor Lapis Blue

Cars been sitting for a while collecting dust but here's a couple pics to start out with. I absolutely love my hood and not cheaping out saves a bunch of headaches lol.

Looking good! I am in the process of going from a YSi to a Huron twin kit as well on my C5Z. What brand coilovers do you have? How do you like them?

I was going to upgrade my A&A Si to Ysi. I had bought everything new, blower to 8 rib conversion then saw a Huron kit for sale. Sold the A&A stuff and went turbo. The coilovers are BC Racing. Im happy with them so far. The only thing I can compare them to is being lowered on stock bolts and the BCs are 100 times better than that.

And I thought I was a top 5 Masochist on here. F1C (couple of versions of that). T4 Huron AC G3 Kit (couple of versions of that). Huron APS Twin 6266s now.

However....

I don't have anything on you. Hats off to you hitting all of those angles at once,
