Probably, we did one three years ago with the same twin turbo kit, shown here.

700 Is Not 1000

I like these guys that hook you in "over 1000hp" then show dyno sheet with 700hp. Even if he was talking at the crank that is still like 805hp. Now don't get me wrong that is a metric butt load of HP. But lets call it what it is.

This is what I was getting at. He doesnt show any proof of anything close to the 1000 mark. The only reason I asked is because he was using ported lq9 heads.

Wow so I have a newer car if I add twin turbos to it, it would be worth what $70k? Yeah sounds like an investment to me!
