**** the turbo i just wanna know where you got the front bumper from lol

 

my cousin got me a good deal. try schrams or ur local chevy dealer lol. or crateenginedepot.com

 

I'm sorry i need to see some dyno numbers

 

ya me 2!

wanna pay for it??

 

LOL!! Nice to see you went for the build!

 

Wow, very impressive. 7 psi on a t3 must be laying down some nice numbers. I'm going to guess around 270 if you were able to take out that 5.7l GTO. Any problems so far?

What's the butt dyno say?

 

nice job...kinda looks like mine.....that fmic looks good.........nice runs....and im loving that kill list

 

thanks

thanks

butt dyno doesnt register that good. its reading kinda like a narrowband guage, its only telling me that im faster than before lol.

ya i noticed it was similier, but hey whatever works ya know

thanks about the kills list, seriously i get the "deer in the headlights" look ALL THE TIME whenever i race this thing and/or they here this "psh" sound

 

you mean it wasn't dyno tested? wow....

 

All I wanna know is by how much did you beat that GTO. Any more than just by a car length and you're putting down insane numbers.

 

nice set up you got there...what times did you run

 

very nice

 

how much money did you put into this setup?
would it be cheaper then buying the garrett kit?

 

It had to have been. Any custom turbo build is cheaper than the kit, but with the kit you know what you're getting. I doubt he spend more than 2000 on what he has now.

But, like everyone says, custom setups have custom problems. Go with the kit unless you know someone who can do the piping for you.

 

by the way james, you only beat me the other day because i couldnt launch and i have almost bald tires.. just remember that by the end of the 1/4 mile i was always catching up to you. give me some good tires and sub 90 degree temperatures outside, and i'll gladly beat you

 

ya and give me some better tires then the all seasons i have. damn pirelli's are not good tires at all on these cars. everyone will contest to that.

and btw, we trapped similier speeds.

the gto was by about a car length

thanks

 

it needs far more tuning then whats done to it, and by a far less ghetto method.

also, your welcome for fixing your issue the other day....muwhah.

 

i'm assuming it wasnt tuned by dyno???

 

damm that is sweet. Someday i will be putting a turbo on my 2007 2.2.

 

hahaha, no way

 

How much time did you put into this/ how many days did you have to take your car off the road? It's not like I have the money to put into it anyways but I'm just curious

 

incar vids and under hood vids nice shiot

 

Glad you joined the ranks of us uniques How is that tune working for you? I MIGHT have to give in....

 

wow... cant wait!!!! my turbo stuff is due in on the 27th!!! yay!! cant wait for this shyt
