Heck Yes!

is that thing U.S airforce surplus?

LOL... not quite, but close enough for my uses :)

My little '51 shall have some fun this summer!

It doesn't look too bad does it.

;)

I would add LS1's to that list as well...........

i want a ride!
will i have to purchase some kind of permit first?
a waiver to sign? jk

NICE

Hey alex - just shot ya an e-mail :)

A waiver... LOL
Just come to 944Fest - hopefully I'll have it in the car by then.
If so, free ride :)

thats going to give you some god aweful turbo lag

Nah, I'm pretty sure it'll spool as soon as the stock turbo.
:)
I think the pic makes it look bigger than it is... The part you are looking at is actually sitting about 5 or 6" away from the wheel.

Maybe this is a better representation of size.
I wish I still had the spare K26 to sit next to it though.

Full boost at 3-3100....... and pulling all the way to redline.

LEAVING any and all stock turbos WAYYYYY behind....

You should see what it does at +20psi..... (shivers)..... but if I were Uni-ball I would stay at 15 psi....

I'm probably going to run it at 12psi or so until I do the rebuild.
Afterwards, I'm going to aim for lots of boost, but with water injection.

I guess I'm going to see what other goodies I can accumulate for next winter's project.

I cant wait to get my turbo engine, im going to build and boost the ever loving hell out of it. Have fun my man

the seccond pic in the first post is awesome man, looks like fun...im jealous

Brad,
If I get the LT-1 done i would be willing to play a little cat and mouse and then I want a ride in your car.

Speedy:)

My friend just moved to Maryville last week so we can have a place to stay at next time we meet up at the Tail.

Cool! I can't wait to go back :)

what turbo is that?

Pretty sure a nicely built LS-1 would leave it behind ;)
However, that is very nice. Much bigger than my K26/6 :(

all things being equal, it should be equivalent to a 5.0L once it reaches 14PSI.
