BADDLS1SS.....you live in Slinger, WI? I lived there in the mid 70s, the population at that time was only about 1,200 people. Do they still have the race track? I can remember going to watch Dick Trickle race before he went to NASCAR.

Yeah it just sounds a little cammy, runs and drives like a stock car and gets 23 mpg.

The cool part is you cant really hear the turbo unless im accelerating past 1/4 throttle gettin onto an on ramp or something during normal driving. It does turn some heads when im out at our local cruise strip and rolling ins 2nd gear next to another LS1 car with mods preferebly and i clamp the brakes on and start rolling into the gas at the same time to spool the turbo, you hear it come on like a semi's turbo then, stay on it long enough to get like 6 lbs and mat it, instant spikes to about 12-13, sends the drag radials up in smoke litterally while passing the other car thats been going WOT for a bit like they hit the brakes bwahahahhaha

i just emailed them, told them what i had and they set me up with a photoshoot. I think it was because the car is so clean and that it makes pretty high HP for not having much done to the motor like added cubes or heads even.
