Default New video's of my Turbo SS!!

I posted this over in the FI Section but thought I would post it here since some of you don't visit that section much.

I know alot of you guys have been asking for some video's and finally had some time with nice weather to shoot a few video's.

ENJOY!!

2nd and 3rd gear pull - 30mph - 100mph (Tire spin 2nd gear, shift early to 3rd)



1st gear and 2nd gear burnout, Should have stayed it in longer, mind ya these are 28x13.5x15 Hoosier QTP's



Wife narrating the aftermath. She's great!



And of coarse an inside the car video. Tires breaking loose in 2nd, granny shifted to 3rd (Wife in the car), pulled through 3rd.



Just a pic of me, ear to ear grin!!



Overall, I love this car!! Worth every minute building it!

I did too for the longest time. Just one day decided it was time. It is soooo simple to make crazy power with a turbo. Pulls very smooth and drives similiar to stock with the small cam. Can't wait to bump the boost up to 15psi, but am waiting to finish up my 9". Bye bye 10 bolt!!

BTW, Nice SS, love the color!!

Once you do, you will be hooked. I have built strong N/A motors, Supercharged Motors, NOS Motors and this is BY FAR the most fun I have had. Turbo power is so smooth end feels endless. Can't wait to see what it feels like on 15psi (680-750rwhp). I plan on boosting this motor to the max before I drop in my built 370.

Here's a small breakdown on parts but can be done ALOT cheaper..

Turbo - $775
WG and B/O Combo - $500
EBAY IC - $120
Piping and flanges - $200

It's all the small stuff that adds up to make it all work, like injectors, clutch, tune, fuel pump, controllers, etc etc.

They are Holeshot Holestars. 3 piece wheels. Wheel rings are forged aluminum, centers are billet aluminum.

Front still require spacers, the rears fit with no grinding. Fitment is nice!
