i was just wondering if there is a bolt on kit possibly with a little "dent modification" for twin turbos on a LS1 Z keeping the AC and Cruise control.... just wondering if anyone knew of a company that made one that is installed in the engine compartment, not underneath the fuel tank... and does the kit require cutting the bumper for an intercooler?
Thanks in advance!

would it really be that hard to recreate this? I think that quite a few would sell if it was all bolt-on and a minor dent mod was only needed.... if somone made if before, i dont see why it cant be done again...

I don't know what's more impressive.....the fact that I got the kit for $4,500, or the fact that Cartek installed it for $500.
That should have been more like $7,500 total.
44 months and 37,000 miles on kit and still going strong.

Yep, the $4500 price was really a steal, especially when you consider the state of LS1 FI back then. I think that the only kits that were really in wide circulation at the time were the Vortech G-trim kits.
I am going to be building a custom twin or single setup in the next 3-6 months, but even then I am going to be pretty hesitant to sell my Incon stuff. I guess that I will just have to find a cheap f-body to buy, transfer the kit, and then put it into daily driver duty
