why is the IRS out of the car?

I think that that power number is part of his sig from before the turbos. The posting was made today and he states that he was going to the dyno to see what it puts down. I think that he will be back with some current numbers soon.

Nice turbo kit, but not a fan of the body kit.

I think 580 is a safe amount of power for a stock LS2.

how are you getting the oil from the turbos back into the oil pan?
is there a pump? Looks like the turbos are at or below the oil level in the pan to me

here's some pics of another one that was getting done at the shop where i just had a dyno day. STS says 8-10 hours install. i'd like to watch them do it once. way more than 8-10 hours. this one made 520 rwhp.

for a stock block and someone not wanting to blow it up 580/600 is about right. id say thast the equvilant of running 540/550 on a stock LS1
