My friend came down from New York to do some routine maint. on his '86 T-Type yesterday. Car is a three owner (bought this one in '02 from Dennis Kirban in PA) with on 52k on it. I am sorry i didn't shoot the inside, it's marron and in excellent condition, i mean perfect...
Obviously garged it's entire life, i had to talk my friend out of selling it 15x in the last 5 years (two kids, works all the time you know how it goes lol) he would've taken 15k cash, car has over $35k invested in it. Entire drivetrain is built up including forged bottom end full roller and champion heads. forget the turbo size but it is HUGE, pulls up top like a freight train. All professionally installed from DYNOTECH in New Jersey.
Not only engine but the car also has a $6k stereo system in it that is completely steath with PPI & Kenwood rollout Nav/Dvd, false trunk floor and back panel at the trunk hinges all covered in factory GM black carpet. Even has 4 speakers in the bottoms of the front doors behind the factory carpet, truly incredible looking. two 10" PPI subs in an enclosure behind the panel and the rear 3/4 is dynomatted.
Still has the factory wheels at home. At atco 7 years ago under the old setup (pre Roller and Alk injection) car went 11.55 @127 with a 2.0 60' on those 17" Nitto DR's, had no traction for the first 100' or so. Car runs through the 3" exhaust, it has a regular dump but it's never been off. Gone are the days of the turbo dump after melting numerous wheels lol..
anyways, here's a few pics. btw thanks to Matt @ TuneTime Performance for allowing us to use a bay all day!

I'll post the pics of the other turbo cars he's had. The stable was quite impressive and included another '86 Silver T-Type (13k mi) that ran 11's on stock Engine/turbo, a 10k mi '87 GN with the atro-roof, '89 Trans Am Turbo 14k mi, and a GNX with 89 miles on it, it was #433. Car was a trailer queen 2owner he sold in '02.

Nice car, hideous wheels. That car doesn't deserve to be shown with those. Get the factory wheels back on it ASAP.

Get the itch? jump in his new 1DSC Procharged Camaro and blast a 10 second pass @130 lol (you can see the silver SS in one of the pics)
Thats the same thing I was thinking. I had a silver 87 t-type with GNX wheels on it. I lost it in Katrina
