dude, your car is so sweet... This probably should have been posted in the multimedia section, but I do have to say, that is a fine ride you got there. And that music... AHHHH, when I was in a triple last year, my roomates listened to that song a lot!!!

The whole video was shot in south Tulsa and the north end of Bixby.
Ya the turbo is cool and all but I put it on last October and it has literally been in and out of the shop since day one. I finally now almost have it running perfect. It still misfires some and it occassionally stalls at idle. If you do a turbo be prepared to spend ALOT more than you plan on just for random things you dont even think about that will break.
With a bent connecting rod and worn out piston rings my car put down 452rwhp and 560rwtq. Since then, I have added the valvesprings, LS6 intake and I rebuilt and forged the engine with lower compression. I am hoping my numbers now are around 500rwhp and 600rwtq. I havent taken it to the track because it has always been in the shop and running crappy. I plan on taking it probably the weekend after this one. I will also get the new real dyno numbers soon.
The blue T/a has lots of bolt ons but he also has flowtech LT's and true dual exhaust with a FlowTech X pipe. His numbers were 346rwhp and 363rwtq. At the track on street tires he ran a 13.27@109? He spun through first and had like a 2.29 60ft.

On the first run you can hear it spooling. We edited out all of the video where I am driving casually along and you can easily hear the turbo. We had to shorten it down so we only put in the interesting parts. In real life you can hear the turbo from inside of your house if I am approaching you. People tell me they hear the turbo before the exhaust when I am coming down the street.
