Looks nice and keeping the cats is a plus in states like NJ. Another advantage is no possibility of ingesting H20 with the high intake.

Not sure this setup can keep the IATs as low as the bottom mount.

Do you have to remove the passenger side turbo to change a fuse?

Sorry, just thought of another question....where does the oil come from for the turbos and does the supply have its own pump? This may be in my future plans.

Ok smarty pants......some of the other twin kits also have a small pump....it also continues to cycle oil through the turbos once the engine is shut off.

I do appreciate the reply.

The pump would actually be on the return side when you do not have a downward slope on the oil return line for the oil to naturally drain back into the pan, like a rear or bottom mount kit the oil return has to flow upwards so a pump is needed

That makes sense. I did not think of it that way. I am not well versed on the whole turbo thing yet. Thanks for the information it was very helpful.

No, to change a fuse you need to just remove the air filter and rotate the compressor housing.

We do not see a problem with installing this on your ZL1 as long as the accessory setup is put back to standard SS.

Boost begins to build right as you crack the throttle. With the twin 62's, peak power on a dynojet dyno is around 3300 rpm for a 6 psi base setting. Remember, boost is building up to that point, so there is a nice transition to power. It has an awesome OEM feel as far as the power curve is concerned.

The turbos are fed with engine oil, and the oil gravity drains into the oil pan with two separate lines.

We can delete the turbos if desired, but not recommended. We have years of experience in developing the perfect turbo combination for this vehicle, and the Presision units we use are the most efficient and powerful units on the market. The CEA wheel design combined with V-band inlet turbine creates the ultimate power adder at all levels.

We will locate some pictures and post them. It is in the same basic location, just moved against the inner plastic wheel well liner. The Ecu is relocated on a supplied bracket below the turbo. No cutting of any wires for installation.
