10 sec Rearmount Turbo C5 Pics, Videos, Results
Over the past few months I pieced together a rearmount single turbo kit on my C5. The car worked great last year on the nitrous, but I grew tired of filling the bottle, so after some research I decided to take the FI plunge. I removed the G5x3 cam and installed an 02+ LS6 cam w/ Comp 918's. I kept the RPM Trans, Fuddle 3600 Stall convertor, Line Lock, and MT ET streets from last year.
The rest of the turbo kit consists of:
Exhaust/Turbo:
Z06 manifolds
2.5" (x2) to 3" 304ss merge collector
3" 304ss exhaust pipe
Heat Wrap, Exhaust hangers, gaskets, flanges, etc..
PT76GTS
Tial 44 WG .6 bar spring
Oil feed/Return:
-4 SS feed line
Check Valve
-10 SS line (turbo to pump)
REV GP-301 Oil return pump
Various Lines and fittings
Intercooler/Charge pipe:
3" Aluminum Charge pipe (Various bends and straight sections)
Tial 50mm BOV
Top/Bottom Intercooler (27x12x4)
Silicon and T-bolt Clamps
Intake: 4x9"" Filter on turbo
Fuel System/Controls:
Twin intake Walbro pumps
-8 feed line
Billet Rails
Aeromotive 1:1 FPR
Various Fittings
Motron 60# injectors
2 Bar Map sensor
HP Tuners 2 bar SD BlueCat tune 9.5psi Pump Gas
Here are a few work in progress pics
Here's a video from a dyno session

The convertor wasn't workng well on the dyno, it slipped a lot and didn't put down much power. Sounds cool though.
Here's a burnout video:

And finally...
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/1...00017a25f4.htm
It went 10.85@126 and 6.99@100 on a soft 1.69 60'
It also went 10.86@125.8 later that day. I'll try to scan slips and post up some more videos next week.
I ordered a tighter convertor upgrade from Fuddle, should be here today, hopefully that will help get the 60's back into the low 1.5 like last year. I'm very happy with the car, how it drives, how it moves down the track, and the fact that I still drive it EVERY day with very few issues. Thanks to Dan, RTC, and all my friends who helped me get it together.
Anyway, just thought I'd share. Enjoy.

looks awesome! i know you said it even thought it isnt in the pics but exhaust wrap those pipes seems to make a huge difference, not to mention it will help where that charge pipe and exhaust pipe seem to run kind of close. but other than that i love the setup very well thought out and implemented imo

I also added a 1/8" skid plate on the bottom of that flattened pipe going under the front aluminum sub-frame. It scrapes occasionally.
