Thompson Motorsports twin turbo Z06
BETTER PHOTOS TO COME, SORRY ABOUT THE POOR QUALITY PICS.
The new Thompson Motorsports project. We will be building this in multiple stages(different motor and turbo sizes to show the relations and differences). We are starting with a 2002 Z06 corvette that has all ready had an STS Twin turbo kit installed. It is all stock other than the turbo set up, and makes 541HP and 552FTLBS as it sits.
First build will be set up and used at the Texas Speed Syndicate run in April. It will be set up with the following:
MOTOR:
TMS boost 370 at 9.6:1CR
TMS 2618 forged pistons by Diamond racing in a Flat top -2cc (this is our piston, We have made minor changes like re inforcing the base of the piston under the valve reliefs for addl strength, lowered ringlands, and addl support from the crown to the pin and base of the piston)
TMS 4340 forged connecting rods with ARP rod bolts
TMS file fit ring set
Narrowed rod bearings and chamfered main bearings
GM balanced crankshaft
GM LQ9 block blueprinted by TMS
TMS 317 casting CNC ported heads with dual springs and titanium retainers
TMS Stainless steel valves triple back cut intake and double back cut exhauts
TMS custom ground billet camshaft
Chromoly 7.400 pushrods .080" wall
MLS head gaskets 4.080"x.051"
TMS 8740 head stud set
Scorpion roller tip rocker set
EXHAUST
Stainless long tube headers
Stainless X pipe
Turbo:
Currently stock STS turbos, we will be operating the turbos for a short time on the new motor to guage the maximum ability then upgrading before the TSS event.
Here are some photos of the car as it came to us.
