Everytime you're the first to test something, it takes awhile. Just look at how rx took five months with yellow glides car

Well they just recently chopped a hole in the hood to fit her insane intake elbow. I don't think there is much else she could do to it now.

Will you be the first for the IPS tt system? Is their one available for the LLT?

Can't_C_Me · 03-23-2013, 07:55 PM

IPS did build one LLT TT in the past. If everyone remembers Orange5thGen's car. But last I spoke with him he sold the coupe and bought a LLT Vert. And he was swapping over the kit to that car.

HP Turbine · 03-23-2013, 07:56 PM

They made one other llt twin turbo car that i know of. They had a lot of pains with the tuning. They were doing remote dyno tuning with trifecta. The results were up and down.

HP Turbine · 03-23-2013, 07:57 PM

I think orange5thgen has a white SS now...

Can't_C_Me · 03-23-2013, 08:05 PM

Naw he has a LLT vert. I talked to him late last year.

Here is the thread from his and IPS original build.

Yeah that would be the car. Not sure why I recalled thinking it was a SS.

lscamaro · 03-24-2013, 02:19 AM

I've talked with ips about the possibility about still doing the llt kit but they said that they didn't like the remote tuning. That they wouldn't mind if they could do their own tuning but weren't interested in remote tuning anymore

HP Turbine · 03-24-2013, 03:24 AM

When I was talking with them they were saying that the remoting tuning was a horrible and scary time for them. Like run away the car might explode on the dyno kind of deal

lscamaro · 03-24-2013, 03:38 AM

Yea, that's what they told me too. That their experience was less than "fun" hahaha

Can't_C_Me · 03-24-2013, 11:11 AM

That was along time ago, I would figure that remote tuning is a little better now. Everyone does it now across the board. And if you have the right equipment to monitor things should be fine. Me and Vince were remote tuning this weekend for a change to my kit. It all went smooth and I was at home lol. But I get that in house is the best way. I would say IPS should just buy the Trifecta suite for their shop so they can tune in house. But I'm thinking that no one in house knows how to deal with the LLT.

I figured I would post an update of some of my car coming together. The build was held up for a while when the turbos were changed and new custom flanges had to be fabricated. The flanges came in last week and everything is moving forward

. I was told that the turbos will most likely be mounted up by the end of the day.

Looking good man.
