I'm looking at different companies and the price vs performance. Currently I have my eye on Fastlane Performance's 75mm turbo kit for my L99. The current purchase price is $9,000.00 out the door labor already included. They assure me for a L99 it will make 520rwhp, but with the addition of a duel fuel pump(?) they can bring it up to 580ish on pump gas with the addition of an additive. 520 to the wheels sounds like a hell of a lot of power to have rw.

But I was looking to go for at least 580 or 600 rearwheel, but I dont see any other kits I'm looking at for around the same price.

520rwhp is good for 9k flat considering some superchargers alone run at 8,000k uninstalled, and once you add headers, exhaust, cam, AND installation- your looking at close to 15-20k for the same power. Granatelli, what does your kit offer, and what's kind of price are we looking at out the door??
Still think a top mount turbo is the way to go for the street?

Today most turbo manufactures make very reliable products - That is not to be confused by the various kit makers.

Single top mount systems require a cross over pipe that merges all the exhaust flow and energy into the "hot side" of the turbocharger. You basically take all the heat that is radiating out of the heads which is also known as energy and channel it into the turbo. That is alot heat pumping tp the top of the engine.

Why would anyone ever want to mount a turbocharger with super hot exhaust right next to the spark plug wires, the coils, the valve covers, ABS unit and the likes.

The Twin Turbo set up is often perceived as complex and difficult to install over other systems but that is simply not the case. Sure you need a hoist, lift and or jack stands to install it but once installed it is the most maintenance free and trouble free of them all and that was the real first question – Reliability!.

The words of Dracer98 - "Granatelli Motor Sports – Everyone Pretty much agrees they have the nicest looking kit out there – should I say just released kit out there They run PTS turbos which are considered to best in the business and I have firsthand knowledge that the PTS 6265 turbo feed 600hp each at moderated boost levels – so this kit is what they say Able to go from Mild to Wild! How can you go wrong with Granatelli, everything they put their minds to usually is top notch – they work with Turbo Tech - that just gives this kit the 1 -2 punch over the rest in my book - Thanks for the kind words

http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=86427

We now have a few A6 customers making 575 and 590 respectively as well.



Granatelli Motor Sports in concert with Turbo Technologies, Inc have come up with the first truly bolt on twin turbo kit worthy of the demands of the LS3 and L99 engined Camaro. Using twin PTE6265 Precision Turbo turbochargers, combined this system will support 1300hp at the crank. However, at only 6.5 lbs it makes 540hp and 560 ft/lbs to the wheels on a auto A6 transmission (595hp and 600+ ft/lbs with M6 at 6.5) and can be driven in bumper to bumper traffic with no worries. All tubing is tig welded & mandrel bent. HUGE 3.5” thin wall aerospace aluminum from the intercooler to the throttle body further dissipates heat and keeps the engine compartment near OEM specified cool. Bottom mount turbochargers draw air from twin sealed 1000 cfm K&N air intakes to insure plenty of flow at all times. Best of all the entire system mounts above the factory frame rails to eliminate the worries of “touch down” over speed bumps a commonly found problem on other systems.

Features and Benefits:

•(2) PTE6265 Precision Turbochargers. – Each capable of 65 lbs/hr
• or (2) 61mm Turbonetics Turbochargers. – Each capable of 58 lbs/hr
•Turbos are V band mounted on inlet and outlet to insure easy rotation, solid mounting and best of all there are no nuts and bolts entering or exit turbo body
•(2) PTE 46mm Waste Gates Insure Maximum Control Over the Monster Turbos
•Fiberglass Reinforced Silicone hose couplers ensure durability for year to come – no expense was spared
•Huge 3.5” Plumbing from Intercooler to Throttle Body Eliminates Lag and Increases Plenum Area
•Factory Silver Powder Coated Tubing – Special Colors Available on Request
•Waste Gates Include Adjustable Springs to go from 4.5psi to 15psi (We factory set them at 7lbs)
•50mm Tial Blow Off Valve
•(8) 62 lb/hr low impedance injectors
•(8) NGK TR6 Spark Plugs
•Full Stainless Steel Hot Side Piping
•Largest Front Mount Intercooler Required
•Dual In / Single 3.5” discharge
•Intercooler Tanks are Black Powder Coated to Extract Heat Yet Fins Remain Untouched
•ECMs are tuned in house and factory shipped same day

We realize that every manufacturer will tell you their kit is best. We simply recommend you ask a friend. Ask your friend who is the only company that offers true bolt on turbo systems for most LS series engine applications. Ask your friend how many companies can sell you a twin turbo kit, in a box, that promises to fit your Corvette and/or Camaro and make over 1000 proven HP.

Add ons:

PTE 6265 Ball Bearing Turbo Upgrade -
Turbonetics Ball Bearing Turbo Upgrade -

Tuner kits available

After the intro pricing and they will still be the best bargain.

Yeah when I get my camaro within the next year, I keep flopping between Granatelli Twins and Whipple, no reason other than I am indecisive with what I want, maybe I should make it easy and get both (yeah, when I win the lotto ). But out of the turbo systems I really like the Granatelli. the only reason right now that I would go with the whipple is the low rpms ( however that might make the turbos more desirable in a daily driven car, see can't decide) but I have yet to drive a twin turbo car so I cant say I know what they feel like. Keep up the good work and welcome back

If you're going S/C, Whipple [in my opinion] is the best, if you're going TT, you got three nice systems out there. I've had them both (I mean S/C and TT), and if/when I do it again, it will be TT. The experience of TT is something you never get tired of. It's a very natural F/I. All the new cars are becoming Turbos these days. It's like dating Twin Sisters [at the same time]

This system looks clean, I think I have made up my mind. But I still need to buy a camaro (well, a 5th gen anyways...) 1st.

Nice system for sure!!

The whipple type blower will only make more torque below 2500 rpm after that teh turbo will be kind and HP numbers will alway sbe better with the turbo becuase it take NO POWER to drive it

Still gathering parts for my own winter project. If I had to buy a kit, it wouldn't be from you because you put down your competition and just talk too damn much.

Ouch! Sorry you feel that way. It is just pride of workmanship. It sure seems like every time we post a number someone jumps in and says "owe we can do that". I am reactionary just like everyone else but I guess i need to be thicker skinned - Good luck with whatever combo you pick
