You will need to sump those turbochargers and install a crankcase breather system.
You may want to consider tuning the production computer for a 2-Bar Map and not using the FIC.

Good Luck,

Dan

Don't **** around with someone like that. Go to the police and get a report, have an attorney write up a letter, and send him the letter and a copy of the police report informing him that he either makes it right or you will go after him for the cost of the correct replacement turbos, anything the shop time he wasted costs, and legal expenses.

No need to ***** foot around when someone is being a ****bag.

That isn't a bad idea at this point! Would I file a report with my local PD, or his?

Yours and I think they would contact the local police who would then get in touch with him. I could be wrong but I am pretty sure that will work. Good luck. You have one of my favorite cars of all time in the best color combination with fiske wheels I used to dream of. Best of luck with the project.

Interesting build. What clutch are you going to use and what size injectors? Any extra fuel pumps and modified fuel rails? Those turbochargers will spool quick and you will love those for the street.

Clutch is a Spec 3+, held the nitrous no problem, but it will most likely end up with a twin disc. Fuel system is basically a Weldon 2025 pump, -10an feed, custom rails, 1000cc injectors, boost reference FPR, etc.

Thumbs up

Twin disc will be a great addition to hold that kind of power. Heffner used those 62mm turbos on the TTG's and they were able to put down similar power to your goals. The tricky part to RWD cars is to put all the power down on the ground. Those TTG's being AWD are planted on the ground. I saw some of those at the Texas Mile and man those cars were rock solid. RWD cars are insane at top speed it almost feels as if the front wheels are on the air. Best of Luck and hope you take that Rocket to the Mile.

Peter,
Long time no talk, hope all is well bro. So when is the G getting the TT treatment

I had a front mount TT GTS Viper built by RSI. While it made 1478 rwhp on race gas, it was the most fun and fastest street car I've driven right at the 950 rwhp level. It would basically beat 99.99% of the cars out here in Houston on that setting as the way it made the power was amazing. Then again, I had twin 76 mm turbo's on the car and so it made power very progressively throughout the RPM range.
