No track day for me, I will be at the title company's office signing closing paperwork on the new house that day. I really do want to take mine to the track to see what me and my car are capable of doing.

Gretchen is an awesome build for sure. Good luck and keep us all posted on progress. It should be fun.
I can vouch for that!!

My advice is to do your homework up front and really think it through before you start. As Larry said there are a ton of supporting parts you may or may not need depending upon how extreme you want to go.

The other thing I would tell you is find others that have done similar builds and learn from their experiences. You will be surprised at just how much you can learn from others on the C5 forums.

The last thing I will tell you is to expect the unexpected!!!

Good Luck!

I'll be in Disneyland with my girls!

I'll need a big motor to keep up with them for 6 days!

A little frustration with the Cheyenne cruise in's rained out and I'm getting anxious to put some miles on! BUT not too many miles ya know!

Just been real busy-business is strong and then we moved into the new home we built over the winter/spring so that has been trying too. But things are settling down now so hope to see folks soon.

Most definitely, thanks for the support...... I have been in extensive contact with "GretchenGotGrowl" and "SC2150"...Gretchen being the only other V6 Twin Turbo in existance (soon to run 10s) and Tracy "SC2150", the man who designed the kit and his shop installed the kit on Gretchen..... I won't go as deep as Gretchen, but I would have a setup capable of 450-475rwhp safely, if not more (depending on Boost settings, it'll all be manually controlled)........I honestly have learned a LOT about the LLT motor that's in my V6 and I'm just thankful that a lot of shops are doing more for them to really test the performance...These forums are amazing as far as picking people's brains are concerned.....I'll keep everyone updated and now when I get my car back... I can keep up better when everyone decides to play "Chase the Taillight" on our infamous drives......Laramie, Parrys and the Aquarium are the first 3 that pop up in my head......no sneak attacks huh Kirk?
