Just when I had my eyes set on a twin turbo setup, you had to do this to me.

Congrats on the setup. Just like everyone else, we would love to see some f-body setups.

rjw, absolutely amazing work, and an amazing job, especially given your short time frame. I was ready to do a procharger this winter in my 2k1 T/A, if you are even slightly serious about thinking of designing something like this in a F-body, thats more than enough to make me wait!!!!

Again, amazing job

Thanks...

Ran out of fuel up top and with smoking clutch...this is the latest and last result before going forged



I had to feather the throttle at higher rpm's.. either pump or bap were fudging out or I just plain ran out of fuel.

I am lucky that it still runs....

A somewhat adventurous ending to Stage 1 one of my project...

But i did manage to hit 600 rwhp. so I am happy and the car still runs fine...

Boost was a little over 8 psi on the dyno, but I see more on the street.

That is amazing. I wouldnt doubt you running out of fuel especially if you are on stock pump.

Thanks guys

the current plans are up in the air...may be just a forged 346 or 383, but who knows.

IAt's will be kept secret at the moment, in that I am testing a somewhat unique under sc heat exchanger, but I can say that considering the 99F + ambient and back to back runs, so far they are very respectable.

As far as an Fbody kit i would be happy with the 2.2. The main deciding factor would be the price, I know how much the KB cost. So I would want to know what the total price was going to look like. The 2.2 will push more than enough boost to get all the power you want assuming you have a motor to handle.

Seriously, any plans for a hemi kit? They have a tall intake manifold stock, it might fit under the stock hood

The 2.9L kit sounds real good if it can be packaged in the F-body. I really like the idea of a 3.3L, but I don't know how that monster could fit in the F-body. I'm hoping there is a way to package something as big as a 2.9L under the factory 1996 WS6 RAM AIR hood. Now that would be badazz....staying subscribed.

I would like a twin screw that required no cutting and could work reasonably well with a stockish LS1/LS6, not one that makes 1000HP necessarily. So I suppose that would put me in the camp with the guys who like the 2.x's.
