2013 Camaro V6 TT (Fabberge)
Hello everyone;
I'm new on the forum but I want to post some of my Camaro build up pictures and talk about the experience so far. After talking to Stas (Fabberge/ IPS, same owner), I was able to get the kit installed as R&D. He dropped me off and pick me up from the hotel and gave me a tour of the Fabberge facility. He is a really downed to earth guy and easy to talk to. The kit itself was installed by Brian at Makarov Division in Ohio. Brian was a prior employee from IPS that decided to crate his own company, which I'm really glad he did because the service that he provide it was exceptional. It took him 2 days (16hr per) for the installation and tuning. Because at the time of the installation I still had the catalytic converter, he was not able to run it on the dyno. I drove it 6hr to Clarksville TN and so far its being a pleasure to drive it. The kit itself is awesome specially when you have a person like Brian installing it, but for what I've being reading so far at the forums it seems that IPS needs some restructure at the managerial level. |

Welcome, and very cool.. The group keeps getting bigger! So did they dyno tune it or are you running the canned tune?

Welcome! Have you had any issues after the install? And you said it was installed as R&D, does this mean you are 6spd?

Other than re-torque some leaking oil lines (very minor) everything has being great. I had surprised some unexpected v8 which is awesome. After talking to Stass (Fabberge) he took my automatic car as Research and development.

That is correct, I got the front/back Cadillac CTS-V (ebay)big brake upgrade and I'm glad I did. I highly recommend it if you are planning to take "advantage" of your new turbo kit. |

Nice.... Those are take offs from a V, or a "new" kit? Mind sharing what you paid for them?
Thanks, Rich |
