Turbo on everything stock? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

My car is 100% stock with the AGP kit. Amazing results out of this kit.
Kevin and Ben are great to work with.

So, what's meth usually worth? About 40-60hp? And the kit made how much w/o it?

Unreal · 08-22-2016, 06:12 PM

~50-250rwhp with adding meth depending how heavy you want to lean on it for fuel.

On those types of builds, we are not running that much meth and it's mostly there for safety margin. Maybe 20whp actually gained.

I wanted reliability. Like Kevin said above, the HP difference was probably not that much. But having a reliable turn key turbo kit is amazing.

Stock everything make 672whp 695wtq 12 psi AGP twin kit, but recommend do clutch same time(I run over 6 month on stock and I'm ordering tomorrow my triple clutch and later this year AGP e85 fuel system to run more boost)

Just posted in the other results thread, but here is a bone stock motor with AGP kit and only others mods are fuel/meth. Motor never been touched.

Hey all, thank you all so much for the great responses and very informative help. Most definitely leaning towards the AGP turbo kit.

As I said before, car is completely stock. Would installing headers and a catback exhaust cause any problems when AGP kit is installed? I guess the question is would the piping of the headers, catback, interfere with the kit at all so that the exhaust would have to be modified once exhaust is placed? If so then would it be better to throw on the AGP kit, then once that is done work on the exhaust, headers?

Unreal · 08-25-2016, 08:06 AM

No on headers, the kit uses stock manifolds which is one great advantage. Saves you money on headers.

Exhaust go for it. A full 3" can help spool and power. Just need to make sure it can go onto the stock connections.

Just so you understand about headers and AGP turbos - there is no benefit the AGP turbos would gain with LTH plus they would not work as the turbos are in the location LTH would be (no fit). Shorties don't provide hardly any gain either. If you had a SC, that's an entirely different story as SC benefit from less exhaust restriction.

I see. Wasn't even looking at it for power really, but loved the sound of headers.

So headers are a no go, but a full catback wouldn't be a problem? Any real advantages of a catback vs axleback? Any that would affect or help/restrain the turbo in any way?

Thanks for your response. Any exhaust in particular you would recommend? Would prefer dual tipped as well.

Magnaflow full 3" systems seem to work great.
