Blue964 Posted 22October, 2015 Report Share Posted 22October, 2015 The turbo size are 2 x PT91 (equivalent to GTX47) Each turbo is rated to a maximum of 1650hp, which in total maximum potential HP of 3300. Hence now the main hurdle is the gearbox and what we should do there.you guys are seriously insane...that beast will kill you. love it[note]. i just edited this post.

I originally stated you were crazy, but then edited it to say you are seriously insaneWe get called that a lot. Even the engineer says we are crazy! One of our business slogans is 'pushing the limits in the performance industry' needless to say Brad is keeping up with the slogan! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really not good for your car! Edited as Brad just said: Lots of people are actually moving away from it because of what it does to valve seats, rings, fuel systems, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraz Posted 22October, 2015 Report Share Posted 22October, 2015 Yeah, I know what your saying, His SS has a E85-tune and full E85 custom fuel system. (Big injectors, lines etc,etc). Our attitude to these LS engines are they are dirt cheap for big power, pop and replace mentality I guess. Keep the pics and updates coming, love this build mate.

MFX Posted 22October, 2015 Report Share Posted 22October, 2015 Very interested in his cooling plans as this is definitely the biggest hurdle. Although the way I see it in reality, could you really notice the difference between 1000hp and 2000hp on the street?Either way it is way more than you could do anything with, besides dyno bragging rights.
