nope, for the $10,000 he had in the turbo AND motor, a simple $6000 twin turbo setup would smoke his ass.

Is his clutch slipping the whole damn track?

the cost of building the motor is irrelevant.

are you trying to say if he would have put the turbo(s) closer to the engine, he would be able to make more power without breaking a HE piston?

cause thats what it sounds like

that car sounded mean and hearing the turbo spool sounded nice. I dont know GTO are growing on me now. :-\

Was the clutch slipping??? ???

nope, just a automatic GTO :)

You can see the ass squat as he loads up against the convertor just before launching. which helped the STS turbo spool up quicker.

$10k into a built LS1-LS2 will get you 10's without the turbos.

Local 427 Vette with twin snails is running mid 8's. Slap on street tires and drive it anywhere!

STS kit not worth the $$$.

Honestly it like a HMT kit trying to go "big time" and someone trying to cash in on the low rents (me looks around!) that did the hard and dirty work.
