Fabberge twin turbo build log for my M6 LFX

So I just got my twin turbo kit in from Fabberge 2 days ago and I will be starting the install process tomorrow morning. I figured I would go ahead and start the build log for it. To start with, I'm driving a 2012 LS so it's the M6, I could be wrong but I believe I'm the first M6 with this kit to create a thread about it here. If I am wrong please inform me and share a link, I would like to check it out since all I've found is Automatic builds. Anyways, here is a list of my current mods for the car.

Added factory Halo Headlights with the Gen5DIY harness
Added factory Fog Lights with custom harness
20x9 ZL1 replica rims with 275/40R20
ZL1 brake calipers and rotors, powder coated the calipers to match the car
Running Castrol SRF Dot 4 racing brake fluid
Goodridge braided brake lines
Spec stage 4+ clutch with spec aluminum flywheel
Corsa cat back exhaust
SLP 25% under-drive pully
Vmax ported throttle body
Factory strut tower bar
ZL1 spoiler
Barton short throw shifter
Separate clutch reservoir
Kenwood DNX 6190HD
Scosche dash kit
Two MTX 12" subs
500 Watt amp (forgot who makes it and too lazy to go check right now)

I believe that is everything. I will try and add pictures from all the work done to it up to this point before I start uploading pictures from the twin turbo kit. As for the twin turbo kit though, it's the basic Fabberge kit for my car. I'm also using the Innovate SCG-1 Boost Controller for my car since it's also a Wideband Controller too. I will be taking the car to Fabberge in Ohio to have it Dyno Tuned from them. I will post dyno sheets as soon as possible. I'm hoping to have the kit installed and the car back within the next week.

Also, if anyone knows of a way I can set the images to a "Spoiler!" code or something so you have to click on it to show all the pictures please let me know and I will add it. I know how it feels to have to scroll through a wall of pictures in a thread.

I don't think this forum has a "spoiler" option. If it does I've never seen it.

Thanks for posting, looks like you're well in your way to a lot of fun!

Dang, oh well. I was just wanting to save people from having a wall of pictures to scroll through unless they wanted to. Anyways, yeah I am. I'm excited about this kit. Especially since I'm a manual. I'm hoping to get close to 500rwhp out of it.

Well I bought this kit back in November. Fabberge had some issues with their ceramic coating guys and it delayed the kit. Idk when you asked them about the kit but if it was around the end of November or later then I could of been the 2nd person.

Either way. I plan to post numbers and I live outside of Bristol so once the weather clears up in this area is will go to their drag strip and see what my times are for you guys too.

I'm sure you can easily get a custom badge with an extra t on the end. My twin turbo lfx badges aren't exactly custom. But when I was looking for badges I found plenty of people who can make customers badges.

So this just happened. The oil feed adapter block broke off in the oil filter housing.

If anyone has any suggestions please speak up.

Already tried it. Unfortunately it is aluminum so it just ripped it. But we ended up pulling the whole entire oil filter housing and we're going to grind it down smooth. Clean it out. And we're just going to have a buddy of ours weld the oil feed adapter to the the house. He is anot amazing tig welder and should be able to get a full weld around it so there won't be any leakes. Saves from having to wait for another adapter from Fabberge.

Just a quick update for everyone, the build is complete and had a successful test fire. All that is left now is for it to be tuned. I don't have an exact date on when it will be tuned but once I get one I will provide a update.
