There's a twin turbo 427ci LSX iron blocked engine that makes 1,800 crank horsepower. Just finished it and dynoed it. It has the dual fuel intake that uses a stand alone tank with race gas so the car can be driven all the time on 91 pump gas. Got an email from the shop yesterday that did it.

What was that shops name, hmmmmmmm, can't quite remember..........REN or was it ENR or was it NER....damn, can't remember

Things just keep getting better and better.......

We are working with a customer on that as well. Our new FI66's using ETT wheels will be a nice setup and the customer is hoping for over 1600hp and quick spool.

So.
Length
181.78 + 126.58 MM = 308.36 MM
308.36 X 0.03937 = 12.1401332 Inches.

Tall
124.70 +107.95= 232.65 MM
232.65MM x .03937 = 9.1594305 Inches

Another plug.... I'm well aware of NRE, but I wanted to know the sizes of the turbos I'd have to be messing with.

Quickin

So you are not using NRE, and you are going to use someone else? And you are going to order an OFI kit?

404: Turbo sizes not found

"There's a twin turbo 427ci LSX iron blocked engine that makes 1,800 crank horsepower" =! Turbo sizes

Me personally, I not really impressed with the stuff NRE builds. First of all I notice alot of the parts he uses are not the top of the line. Im not saying there not good, just not the very best. For $50K or $60K that SOB better have billet this Billet that, Alum blocks. If you bought all the stuff he has in them motors and add it up, you wont get to half what he charges.

By the way, and what he's chargin for headers is insane too. Ive bought the same materials he uses, and more of it. and it didnt come to 1/2 what he charges.

Quickin

Maybe you can point out the junk parts for us. And does it mention Billet enough for ya?

I never said ANY of the parts he uses are JUNK. However I can see several parts that to me seem a little suspect for the money.

And am merely pointing out the fact the same or better can be built for ALOT less than what he charges!!!

I can build two of these for what he charges for one of his. http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2375...dy?vhost=rides

By the way, dont get so uptite! Its just one persons opinion.

Also, whats he has in the LSX stuff to me is better than whats in his other motors.

Quickin

People are also paying for his name, which he has proven to be a top turbo builder, maybe the best.

Look at the prices for LPE stuff, double what NRE charges for a fraction of the power, just as another example of how some shops charge hilarious prices for things.

I think he did like 130 dyno pulls with his 408ci TT (1,500 hp) engine, tore it down and it looked like it had never run. So he does build rock solid stuff.

Your right people are Paying for the name. I believe Kenny Duttwieler is doing LSX stuff too.

Basically my point was Way too much money.

If you have a good builder. Use him and use the best parts you can, in the long run you'll be happy.

To answer the original question, here is something turbonetics published as a guideline....

let the phone ring...

dont you have turbos to assemble and ship out

Quickin

Probably a dumb question...but.....

Can the down-pipe be opened while doing a run like an N/A engine does with open headers....for more power?

If so, can a cut-out be used?


.

tt427ls1

No, I woundnt open up the DP, but you can put a cutout on there if you would like. I can install one at the time I make the DP if you decide to order one. Depending what your setup will be you will have a change in boost pressure with the cut out open I would imagine.

Thanks Joel

Quickin

Was it you that I spoke with yesterday about the 101mm turbo fitting with your single kit?

So, you're saying you wouldn't open it up but you would put a cut-out on it so I can open it up?????????? What do you mean?

I have it on my things-to-do-list for tomorrow...to call you and ask about what cubic inches my builder should do with my LSX for this set-up. He told me to ask you. If you want to tell me here....what would you use for ci and the S91? I planned to use a sheet metal intake. What heads and cam would you recommend?

Or I'll call ya tomorrow.

Thanks.
