first time at the track with the setup tuned as is.

mods: stock 99 engine with Diamond pistons and Eagle Rods. HPE assembled the bottom end. Stock ls1 intake and exaust manifolds, stock heads(untouched) and cam from 99. The power maker is my custom turbo kit at 10 psi, 93 octane, 615 rwhp. I have fuel system upgrades of course. Stock rear so soft lauches.



best run

2.05 60ft
7.75 @ 100 mph 1/8
11.6 at 130 mph 1/4

Is this kit stainless or mild steel? where does the downpipe run? Thanks.

Where can I find pics of your setup? How did you use the stock exhaust manifolds with the turbo?

The coolest thing about this car is that it's deadly quiet.

hehe, for those that have seen the car, it is pretty damn quiet

My kit is made of mild steel, just painted for rust protection. The Down pipe runs under the Kmember, there are lot of pics if you look through my site you will find.

Very nice Tiago, great run and kick AZZ mph ! It's good to know there are people that aren't sitting back and letting everyone else have fun designing, manufacturing and testing turbo kits.
