How is your rear-end doing? Is it cooled or supported at all?
Same question with your Tranny?




Very interested.

I'm sorry about my low maturity level but this is just too funny!

I would like to know as well if there will be any supporting mods?

The transmissions already come with a cooler from the factory

Either way, didnt our mr blownchevy say this sucker was going to be ready TOMORROW? Why is everyone freaking out for pics and vids and such. Patience my friends.
nope, there are more moving parts yes but the debate between turbos and superchargers will go on forever. i have participated in a lot of arguments (cobaltss.net) for which f/i is better. they all have their pros and cons. the big thing with higher compression engines is that you have to make sure your iat2's are really low or your gonna get det. alot of people either go turbo or centri. but none of them have the instant boost of a blower.

there are a shit ton of cars that run turbos stock with no problems. its all in the set up. evo, sti, cobalt ss/tc, saab, ford ecoboost, chevy cruze... just to name a few. your not robbing horsepower from the engine either because you are using only exhaust to power the turbo. some call this free hp. but it does disrupt exhaust flow. you will lose about 50hp powering a blower though but the instant boost/torque is enough to give me a boner. we can discuss this all day like i said. its all in your setup and your tune.

After your results, you would be able to fit the same blower to the L99 with similar results? Or would you need to do an automatic camaro first? Just want to know timing, I'm ready to purchase.
