Seems the internals are fine up to 500whp or so, I wouldn't worry about it.

Here's a cool picture of the three turbos Fabberge uses on their kits. V6, V8, and 1000hp V8.

Man those turbos sure are beautiful. Just to play around with the numbers if I were to do a ips kit with all the optional upgrades that would bring me to 7,200 k I think I read some where that ips will actually install this for free is that true? About how much hp and torque can I expect out of my 1LS? If they do install for free how much do you think it would cost to ship my car to them in a closed carrier? I'm from New Orleans!

IPS numbers for a manual will be about 490whp.

I'm not running this kit but at 429rwhp or at 501rwhp (depends on boost setting) and I'm still on stock clutch. I got my kit installed at 6k miles and at 58k miles now. I did a Amsoil trans fluid swap and just swap out the dirty clutch fluid every 2 weeks (need the GTO reservoir). .BUT I don't drag race and all my races are from a roll. Which makes a huge difference on clutch abuse.

Wow that's impressive. Is it a daily driver ? Does the clutch fluid need to be flushed so often once doing the GTO swap?

Congrats! Please keep us posted. Many of us are very interested in this kit. Can't wait to see what you think of it, and how dependable it is!
