turbo lt1 launch pic..

1.56 60ft on the narrow et streets(8.7" of tread), leaving at only about 1/2 a pound of boost and ramping to 5lbs in 1st.(this was my first track visit with the turbo setup) I think it might go wheels up this year.

Yeah I need skinnies again. My ls1 camaro pulled the front heavy 17's, so I want to try to pull the heavy stock 16's on this turbo setup this year.

No problem, do you have some underhood pics you could send me? I'd like to see some if you don't mind.

A lot of the pics are in here...

http://media.putfile.com/new-setup

I didn't own a digital camera back then so I didn't get a lot of the pics. I did the pcm tuck, full front harness tuck, welded in/smoothed all the holes, hood latch cable tuck, abs delete, wiring harness through firewall behind the motor, etc. I'll have new pics here soon when I put on the new turbo kit.

I'm switching to a true header kit from the log style kit so I can't ever out grow it. Realquick build the header kit for me.

Keeping the same turbo for now, I wanted to upgrade to the GTS76, but can't afford it.

Nice skinnies, hopefully mine will do that once I get some good shocks.
My kit should be done very soon. Can't wait to see how it all looks in the end. Give me a shout if you ever do end up selling your turbo
