I'm at 7lbs but on a conservative tune with upgraded fuel and injectors. I made 495 but it was 110 degrees in the shop. On a cooler day and a alkymeth kit I can pull those numbers I'm on a L99. I'm also running cats with a axel back.

I also was told by my tuner I had 6lb springs as well

Yea the wastegates are suppose to be adjustable so you can increase or decrease the psi. i decided to not test the theory and spent $50 on 2 new 9lbs springs. From my research, it seems that most people agree that 10psi on a stock L99 is safe, but all agree that 9psi is safe. That is why I went with the 9. If your tuner can get the fuel and spark proper, you increase the psi just a couple, and dyno on a cooler day lol, you will surely see a nice increase in #'s

NICE!
I HAVE THE STAGE II KIT with 9lb springs.
AEM Boost gauge/controller.
My tuner did an amazing job!
It is set to 8lbs but normally spikes at 8.4lbs
It made over 580 and 580…

I can tell you that the car is an absolute monster once it hooks in mid second!

I LOVE my Turbonetics set up!

I think on a cooler day bit more boost and no cats I can make 550 with my L99. My first turbo car I'm not caught up in the numbers like some

GetYouOne, Im not a "dyno queen" there are lots of guys out there that like to boast about their dyno numbers.. I run drag radials cause i would rather feel the power than look at a video of the car on a dyno….I had all the stuff wrapped to keep heat down…
i don't have too many issues with heat. I LOVE the fact that my car is a true sleeper .
BOOST ON!!

Peak dyno numbers are pretty worthless. area under the curve on a dyno sheet is what equals a fast car and that's all the really matters. I love when guys brag dyno numbers and I'll ask what it runs at the track. They all usually go on to tell me what it SHOULD run, yeah sure buddy

Have had the car for 2 days and its such a blast to drive! Plenty of HP for me personally on the street. Its also nice to know if I ever wanted to increase it then I can.

Bob, nothing better then a sleeper!

Has Turbonetics released any published material in regards to this kit? I was just curious about the pricing and full contents.

We haven't published anything yet but there will be a video and tons of information released very soon. I'm happy to report that our test mule laid down 815rwhp.

After driving around with that type of power the car actually scared me.
