Yeah, I think far to many Fosters were consumed while building these cars.

Ive had my GTO sitting for 5 months now without moving an inch. lol. I wouldnt mind another 2 months. However, I know that a turbo would just blow that thing up. I can swing the 7500, but not all the engine work and drivetrain work it would need. Best of luck with the developement!

gentt's fits horible , aps's mouns them low and using low quaility turbos in the last few batches from what ive read
aps has the almost perfect intercooler , it just needs to come up over the radiator , to get rid of 20 bends in silicone hose , which was how i was gonna do the 1 on the kit i had but sold it cause im gonna go 2300tvs
id offer mine up but i can do the tvs cheaper , and ive gotta save up again for it , spent the money from my aps sale on a big screen tv , lol
are you gonna do high mount turbos , or low mount ? any pics of the type of parts you are gonna use ?

Apparently you have now clue what your talking about... Low boost huh. I call bullshit on that one 900-1000rwhp on an LSX motor is going to take 15psi of boost and any street car that's not low boost.
I know ve been there....
Andhow's having a Shop build you a custom kit thrashing on your car.......

Simple math tells you that in order to make 1000hp on a stock LS2 (which wouldn't last anyways) would require 22.05 lbs. of boost.
14.7 lbs. ambient 400hp stock
14.7 lbs. boost should make 800hp
22lbs. around 1000
NOT BUYING INTO IT
