Default New Sponsor: KY Turbo & Perfomance

For those of you who didn’t already know, I have joined on LS1Tech as a Sponsor.

Kentucky Turbo and Performance
270-303-0531
www.KentuckyTurboandPerformance.com
Josh@KentuckyTurboandPerformance.com

A little back ground on myself. I stated building custom one off turbo setups back in 98. Mostly on Fox body Mustangs. I did it to prove to myself that I could. It was the shear enjoyment of looking at the end result. I built my first LS1 F-Body turbo kit on my now parted and sold 98 Z28. I got several PM's and calls wanting a similar setup to that car. Hence I opened my own shop. I run my shop on a part time basis with full time hours. I still have a day Job. I work as a Industrial Maintenance Tech at Magna. We build Ford Truck Frames.

I do my best to run my shop on a basis of controlled growth. I have seen to many turbo shop start up with a promising setup only to disappear with $$$$$ and no shipped kits. I will not go down that road. I will turn down business to keep from out growing myself.

I have secured a distributor ship with Comp Cams and their subsidiaries. Brian Hogan will be dealing with most of the parts sales. I will have a email address and contact number up for him soon. I will also be making several updates and changes to my website to reflect my new business growth.

I look forward to working with the members of LS1Tech to achieve their boosted goals. Check out my website, and shop car build/progress threads. Let me know what you think. I will be making a lot of changes to the 2000 Z28 Shop Car along the way.

Welcome aboard. Do you plan to do anything with a T6 kit or twins?

I have fitted my shop car with a PT88 turbo with no isuues. A T6 turbo should be just a flange change to make it work. The fun part is getting those big down pipes routed.

No worries though. I have a twin setup being built in the shop right now. I will be building the jigs around that car's setup to be able to produce the setup repeatedly.

The shop car is going to recieve a large T6 single setup as soon as I max out the TC76MPS turbo.. The new setup will be jigged also. I plan to have it mounted high in the engine compartment.

This is all music to my ears. I can't wait to see results. This may be just the ticket for my winter project.

I have plans to mount the twins high for eveyone to see . No point in spending all that $$$ to hide them away. I hope to have some progress pics up of the twin setup soon enough. I am trying dilligently to keep the factory radiator on the twin setup. Space is at a premium on these car as we all know. The challenge is where the fun is for me.
