Wow beautiful car man! That thing really works pretty well for a shakedown pass... Wouldn't expect anything less from the boys at Speed though. Great attention to detail on the build (from both you and them). I tell you what that car is a pig though... Should be driving a GTO at this point

What CI are you running? You did not say in this thread or your other one. Is it Aluminum or Iron? Its good that we finally got the twin 76's out of you.

It's a 428 LSx block. 9:1, mild street cam. To get it to "hit" I might have to change the turbine AR's from 0.8x to 0.6x....haven't had time to do the calcs on the turbine flow yet.

TC76's are great turbos and I have a lot of compressor left to add power, but for an "all around" mostly street car TT system, the GT35R's are VERY HARD to beat when you're launching 4000lbs....but it's all about the combo...and I'm asking a lot from the TC76's...full exhaust to the license plate, no cutout, mild converter, 3.00 rear gear to keep it nice on a cruise...doesn't give a TC a chance to hit very hard.....the GT's helped "crutch" the compromises.

I would not go over 20psi.......on the starting line! Once its moving let it eat, it will tell you when its full.

That's absolutely insane for that kind of raceweight. I love the fact that you still have the AC and PS.

That's is a great looking kit. Did it come complete with those headers in the photo?
