Default Turbo system for c5 zo6

I am looking for a turbo system for my zo6, but I don't know of a many turbo kits. I will be making in excess of 800rwhp, and I want a kit to hold up to those numbers.

STC, "non-sponser" and "non-sponser" make kits.

The kit seems nice, but for 20K I can get my 427 built and nitrous setup for the price of just the turbo kit.

I was looking into the turbo setup, but after further research I discovered it will cost far less money to go N/A with a nice shot of juice.

thanks for the info.

No problem and your right. FI = never cheap and the more power you have the more stuff needs be upgraded. But I will tell ya......"IT's FUN"

How about we mention a few kits that you can actually get and have proven results?

For "hung low" style you have the TTi Stage X and Lingenfelter packages.

For "top" mount you have PTK/PTS.

All three of those setups can make 800 rwhp.

I have the HP Performance kit, i like it a lot. Jason at TSP has on of their kits on his C6 and did over 1000 RWHP. It was pretty awesome. You can buy those kits direct from HP Performance or from Texas Speed.

How long did you have to wait to get the whole kit? HP makes some pretty nce kits, but they've had a REAL BIG problem delivering them (just ask Bob at EPP). No offence to your set-up, I'm sure it runs great and puts down some good power, but at this point they would be the last turbo company I would buy a product from.

PTS, TTi, or FFHP for nice, more affordable(ie not custom) kits that can make nasty power!!!

Later,
Dave

I waited a little over a month to get my kit. It seems now they keep 1 or 2 in stock. My guess is they could get on out in just under 1 month. He can order through TSP, everyone knows the rep they have. Ask Jason how long it takes him to get kits. Can't complain, it made awesome power

Call Bob at EPP they are a sponser on here. Brent can work wonders on a tune. Both these guy's know there stuff. I would talk to him about you are going to do. He added 200 rwhp to my 04 with a Supercharger,headers and a tune. You may want to get set up as a tire dealer, because you aregoing to need alot of them
