Is Speed Inc still making turbo setups?
Is Speed Inc still making turbo setups? well, im sure they are making the kits still, but i havent seen any posts from them for a long time in regards to different builds like a lot of the other sponsors.
last one i can remember i think they had a t88 buildup with 900+ rwhp, but that was prob like almost a year ago.
just curious to see if anyone has heard anything from them since they have those "elimator" kits.

They took me for a ride in the t88 car and only one word comes to mind... WOW! 
Although there were some "minor" traction problems that car hauled ***. I have some video somewhere... I honestly haven't heard much about the kit, but after having some first hand experience in that orange car... I wouldn't doubt their product for a second.

Yeap, there a couple members running around with their kit, I believe Lingenfelter SS has one.
i belive not as many people have it because speed doesn't sell it as a kit, they do the install and tuning themselves (which I personally think is smart since they dont have to worry about putz's screwing up and blaiming their kit).

Been driving the car around for about a month and a half. Getting used to her again after she's been down for a while. Havent posted nothing due to the fact i was waiting to break her in slow. Then dynoing over 20 +lbs of boost
.Since im running the stock computer and the Hptuners 3bar. They are still working out somethings when the boost gets over 17lbs of boost. I drives around town and highways perfectly! 93 octane or 100 when im just cruisin. Its been around 92 degrees lately. Runs nice and cool. Drove to indiana a few weekends ago too. The look of the kit alone is awsome. The engine bay looks great. There are a few in my pics in my sign. . Thanks again to all the guys at Speed Inc.. This kit is incredible 
!! The sound of the car is amazing! Cant wait to go to the track

the big problem that I see with it. is when I spoke to chris about 2 weeks ago, who was supposed to email me or call me back but didnt, they had to remove the AC from the car. sorry but here in Atlanta, it gets way to hot to deal without AC. i am still wanting a turbo kit but just have to keep ac. maybe I will try to call chris back again. also he told me about the sycora(sp) brothers who make custom brackets for supercharger and stuff like that. I spoke to them and they say that they might be able to relocate the AC parts but would have to see the product finished to figure out where to relocate everything. that is the only draw back to there kits I still want one of course. just have to get a response back from speed inc.
thanks
Wesley

lingenfelter ss: defintly man! i have no idea what shows or anything is going on, but i'd love to. ill PM ya shortly.
1fst99z: Trust me, here in chicago its horrible, and at times i get pissed that silverghost convinced me to take out my AC, but if you want to keep all those creature comforts, you shouldn't need a car that get 700+rwhp. 500-600rwhp is just fine for street purposes, and their are other kits out their that allow you to get that.
on a side note: are there any completely aftermarket ac units? i mean who says you have to use the GM one. as long as it works right?

My SS is a street / showcar. I drive it usually only when its nice out. So I didnt mind losing my AC. It was hardly used as is. Plus it helps having the corvette to kick around if its too hot. Being from Chicago its only really bad maybe 2 weeks out of the year
(which I drove the SS in). But being in the southern states. I see why you would need it. But if they ever figure something out. Thats a big plus 
! 
Very nice car!
You car looks just like mine did before I repainted it with the all chrome emblems. But you have those covers over your lights
