Default ST80...dyno...n stuff

TTi Race Kit + ST80

RMCR did all the custom fab of the ST80.
Kaz Motorsports did the ecu swap and 3 bar tune.

low boost ~12psi and higher boost ~xxpsi

This is just a video of spool.

One of the key features is my car is a 98 but now sports a 2002 ecu with 3 bar full SD tune! Guy did the conversion in about 1 business day.

366 cubes
stock ZO6 Cam
cutout open

I have 2 minor issues that need to be resolved but after that it goes back for higher, higher boost.

At the high setting now...the turbo is just getting warmed up

in the video...it low boost and high boost

yes and no...the bottom piping is all the same...but the mounting location is different.

new bracket for holding the turbo was fabbed. But it still uses the same crossover piping





new inlet for the turbo had to be made

Nice TA man! How laggy is that ST80 compared to the T80? I am thinking of going with the ST76 but if your not getting that much lag at your altitude I might go with the ST80. I ran out of air with my ST70.

Altitude really hurts a FI setup. Would love to see that setup at sea level.

Thanks for the info! I was just wondering if the housing cleared the water pump and everything else. I can get some help on fabbing stuff like the bracket and new charge piping is no problem.
