Can't wait to see those dyno numbers.

Are you waiting for 100,000 mile power train warranty to run out before the turbo install?

Ha!

If he has a smartphone he could do rough runs with an app to compare.

Max, Just curious. What did the inside of the maf tube look like? Is it just a straight tube or is there something inside it?

Z Madness · 07-25-2010, 06:24 PM

Rod1, are you asking me or MaxKamai? This is a picture of my intake and if I recall, it's just straight through. What are you looking for? Somewhere to inject your N2O?

Couple questions. to verify the single turbo gives the V6 454 and twin turbo gives it 750???? Can this be done to a Automatic transmission?

Turbo kit is for either transmission. They are only selling the single for the V6 and the twin for the V8's. The single has the capability of much more boost, it's more limited by what the engine can safely handle.

This single turbo give you like 7 PSI isn't it? and you don't have to upgrade any transmission etc? Since i have LS I think i have to get Z rated tires

Thanks for the quick reply and great videos btw

. I was just checking them out. What kind of HP are you getting out of the system?

Z Madness · 07-26-2010, 12:57 AM

350 rwhp.

Spoone- if you have an LS, you will be speed limited to 118. You will need Trifecta to turn it off if you plan to exceed that level. Wastegate came with a 7psi. Spring, but during the testing, max boost was just under 5 psi. This was designed for a completely stock motor.

SDCamaro10 · 07-26-2010, 02:59 AM

Just remember guys, you wont be able to go much higher then what Z is already at. Start getting up at those boost ranges and thats when fuel management comes in to play and you'll need to do some upgrades to get it to work. The LLT being direct injection is why most companies havent even tried to give us FI yet. Anyways.. i wouldnt go any higher than 6psi unless we see some aftermarket fuel management modifications(injectors, pumps, etc).

Z Madness · 07-26-2010, 04:14 AM

In case anyone is interested...

rhd · 07-26-2010, 04:52 AM

King Sun · 07-26-2010, 05:46 AM
