It took about 3 weeks to do the kit, between welding parts that should have already been there, running back and forth from the hardware store. I have chuck from chucks lsx tuning doing it for me through logging and couldnt be happier with as much as hes helping. When i get back on the dyno I will post the sheet, the 580 is afr around 11.5 on a street tune, been really busy to get on the dyno. I was on the dyno before but now that i got a new wastegate and can get lower then 12psi i have to go back on the dyno, when on it last week to see my numbers and load up the rollers and got a good afr. so probally gonna go on the dyno after the injectors and run 7psi and final tune it.
oo and i forgot to put the wategate in the review but i got a defective wastegate from them and no one whats to do anyhting about it so I bought another one and now dont have problems no more

The turbonetcis kit would have been an easier install for you than the bananas that put mine in, still straightening it out but it was complete ,
Also bro its smaller turbo than what you have

Yea F that company. I saw a car with there kit that was having a bunch of issues at the shop 6 months ago. I'm glad you were able to get everything to work out it just sucks you had to pay that much money and "still have to get stuff to work out".

Well guys, just my two cents worth, I have what sounds like the exact same set up from fastlane (aem tru boost controller, aem air/fuel gauge, aem meth injection, zl1 extended tip turbo kit with a phase 2 comp cam, dual fuel pumps, and no issues whatsoever, it runs like a.dream, 17,000 miles on the turbo kit and still hauling a$$. It is a kick a$$ kit with no maintenance issues. Who hasn't ordered something by mail order and have something shorted? No reason to blast the company, patience is a virtue, anytime I need guidance from those guys, they always return calls, emails, or text messages. In the end, great product and great customer service for me. BTW- play with it a bit and you will see 650 rwhp on 9 psi......& fastest 5th gen camaro at the Texas mile in October 2011,,, 178.1 mph. (With the stock clutch)

i have email and call logs with no contact back. your talkin about mail orders being short parts? i ordered a kit thats nothing like the picture. Called them on missing parts and defective parts and they dont do anything about it. I bought the kit and put another 1000 into all the missing and defective parts. If its missing parts and someone calls they should send them out no problem but they didnt. I ordered this kit with 65lbs injectors and double checked with the before it shipped out and still got 50lbs injectors and they want 550 more for the injecters i ordered till they get the WRONG ones back. I done turbonetics kits and I GOT EVERYTHING i ordered in the kit. if you get a turkey sandwich with cheese and they forgot the turkey would you be mad? sorta like this kit
