Ok, so I havent posted in a while... I apologize, but I have been out having fun with my car since I have gotten it back from MTI Racing. So I came back and updated my mod list on the front page and figured I would throw out my power gains after getting the car back.

So before taking my car to MTI, I was at 385rwhp and 370lbtq... Now after all the installs from MTI and STS, I am sitting at 585rwhp and 592lbtq. All I have to say is man this car is fun as hell to drive now.

MTI installed the following items:
MTI Racing Six Shooter Shifter
STS rear mount Twin Turbo system (MTI Tune)
MTI Racing Stage 2 Cam
MTI Racing Valvetrain (Springs, Locks, Retainers, seals, seats)
LS9 Fuel Injectors
Corvette ZR1 Clutch
MTI Spark Plug Wires
Low Temp Thermostat

So far have only had 1 issue with the Turbo system which happened tonight while driving to pick a friend up... The CHEAP CLAMPS... Basically with the cheap clamps on the charge pipe that connects to the throttle body popped off... >.> Car instantly went into limp mode... So I will be upgrading the clamps here shortly. But other than that all is gravy. I broke the clutch in within 3 days (500 miles of driving) and havent had an issue with that.

Anyways just figured I would share...

Ok, so about a year after having the turbo system on the car... I blew a turbo... STS says after inspecting the turbo, that it was warped and most likely oil deprived... Time to figure out how and why it was deprived of oil... This sucks...

so going to cost 660 for the new turbo and shipping it to my house... Sucks but I will just have to buy better turbos later this year... These turbo's seem to be a little on the cheap side for only costing 500 something dollars... I know good 61mm turbos can cost anywhere for 800-1100... Oh well just another reason to spend more money on the car...
