I also like the sound of the exhaust, but the sound of those turbos is something you don't hear everyday, it sounds very intimidating, that's what Bumble Bee should have sounded like. It reminds me of the movie War of the Worlds, those big machine guns on fighter jets and giant robots, when you hear that sound, you know it's the END. Someone stated that it sounds like a vacuum cleaner, that's right, it's going to suck up everything in its path.

You guys complaining about the sound forget that this car still has stock exhaust on it. Wait for them to throw on a cat-back or diverter system and then have them re-record the sound. I bet you'll love it.

That's what I'm hoping for. Throw a diverter kit, open it up and record it for me. =)

Jtin - I have a few questions. First off, I know as much about turbos as I do under- water basket weaving.
1. This kit will or will NOT work with Lt'S? 2. Will this kit come with a CARB sticker?, Does it even matter in CA.? 3. Once kit is installed with tune, what, if any maintenance will it require? 4. Running at the "safe" 8.5 psi, i'm assuming it will NOT damage a stock ls3/L99 engine? ps: I love the music in the video. |

The original dyno looked a little low don't you think? Are they trying to make a bigger deal out of this?

I love the work but would you do a lighweight single exit (probably what 4 inch?) with a magnaflow muffler in there ? how do you reroute the single downpipe with the stock h-pipe true dual exhaust??? Its just a waste of power for a turbo car isnt it? especially with the giga big resonator of the l99? Make a clip of a single all the way back; must compliment the sound nicely ! |

K - impressed w/ the V8, now let's see some V6#s...but can the drivetrain handle this much power?(either engines) and does the motor need to be broken in prior to getting a turbo/SC installed?

So the $6995 includes installation and tune (for the first three)? Are these slots still available? Dyno tuned or standard tune?

Cost of the kit is $5995 for the tuner kit and $6799 for the full kit. We are offering free install on the first three but I am pretty sure that we have those lined up. One for sure and two we are waiting on a deposit to lock in the spots. Normal install is going to be around $1500-2000 plus 500 for the full tune. Quote:
The brembo brakes are perfect on this car. They stopped it very quickly from 100 to 0. I dont think there would be any reason to upgrade them unless its a track car. Last edited by JTinFL; 09-23-2009 at 08:25 AM. |

No Carb sticker because of no cats, we will be making a kit with cats though and try to get it certified for you guys. The turbo kit, once installed properly there should be no more maintenance than a normal NA car would have. The parts are high quality and will last forever. As long as it is setup and tuned properly, there should be no damage done to the L99/LS3 engine at all at these levels. Quote:
