I rode in Coles vette this weeknd.It is fast as ****.The turbo spools fast and it pulls very smooth and strong.I was very impressed.

One thing, especially if your talking C5 is that $6000 - $6500 installed is THOUSANDS less than a typical C-5 turbo installed. On an f-body, $3800 and install it yourself. It is another alternative in the world of street kits.

Pics of the install and a dyno graph would be greatly appreciated. What kind of fuel system setup are you running? Were those pulls on race gas?

the compression is 9.0:1 cam is like 232, with 585 lift on a 115, fuel is a intank walbro, boost a pump, and 50 lb. inj. The power started to drop of quick due to fuel, Thats why we put a boost a pump on. the pressure during the dyno would drop from 60psi to 40 psi.
