Pics of my TT LT1 SS

Since my car was on the rack to remove the trans, I took a few pics of the setup.

fwiw, the ghetto silicone induction(s) will soon be replaced by hard pipe.

Nice pics!!

That's a nice way you installed the gauges in the dash.

Where did you get the tranny blanket? I have been trying to find one of those.

Drool. :lol:

What kind of rims are those? I like em. :)

man that looks nice, i got my car with the idea of s/cing it. but everytime i see a turbo i wanna go turbo instead. guess I'll wait and see in a few months how the ptk kit looks.

simmons.......theyre expensive, and gorgeous




btw.........damn those turbos are in there TIGHT!

man i dont know im envious lol..thats just sick...you think ya got a decent ride and then..ya look at that..lol..enough to make me reach for the box of kleenex heh






Steve

those dyno #'s are just disgusting! is the kit custom built? im looking for a turbo kit for my 93, not really having any luck....

They are tight.. but they look perfectly thought out and fit...

Im not sure how he gets his spark plugs out and dont know why you didn't use an aftermarket k-member... it would have improved the spacing a lot i think.

Man that is just plain sick! But I ain't gonna lie. That's got to be hell working on that thing....well at least to me it does. I want a TT 396 but it just wouldn't be pratical in day to day driving in the US whenever I return. US highways just don't allow you to just run flat out if you have the urge, ya know?

Sheet metal intake, TT's I don't even wanna know what it cost to get that done. BUT I LOVE IT! Congrats that joker is nice!

NIce :)

Agreed, looks sweet ;)

I also like the gauge install ;)

I might have to consider that as I yanked out the A/C.

I wonder if you i can run my ati twins like that...although the inlets are if different places.

DD or not daily driver? I would think you inter coolers would get alot of junk in them if you ever took it in the rain.

I like it alot.

Very nice setup you go there. I also want to know why you dont have a tubular k-member in there.:)

I CANT LIVE W/O A/C :(

Yeah. The stock K-member must have made that hard. VERY impressive.

Also I'm looking at the dash - I wonder how it was modded to fit those gauges? I'm mounting my gauges inside the bezel with the stock ones- it's really hard to do (I'm modding the gauges themselves to fit) but that way they are hidden and dont stand out. A drop top camaro with a gauge saying "boost" in plain sight screams "steal me!". Dang that's impressive.

Extremely cool stuff...

Once you get the orange hose replaced with hard pipe, that's going to be perfect. Great idea with the gauges. I want to mount some stuff in the cassette holder like that too. What kind of material did you use for that cover- plastic? The texture looks pretty close...

Very nice setup and a very cool car. Must run like a raped ape...

I think I may have to take the rest of the day off and go home and cry next to my supercharged Z:(

Damn, that is sweet!

How much for you to build a replica to that turbo kit? Just take all the piping, manifolds and turbos and send me some just like them and i'll take care of the rest.:D Thats just plain sick looking and i would love to own it but I am sure I would break it quick. :cry: Awesome car man. :bow:

Thanks everyone :)

As far as the gauges, I just removed the heater vent, and used fiberglass filler to form the area for the gauges. After it was finished, I painted it with flat black paint and it blended in fairly well.

It is very difficult to work on. I dropped out the engine to install the system and put it up in the car as an assembly. I havn't changed the plugs since I first installed the system, but I can tell you the rear two plugs are not easy to get to. I could have high-mounted the turbos, but I felt that since I wanted to keep all the accessories, and minimize underhood heat, low mounting the turbos was the best option. (and they still gravity drain fine).

I used the stock K-member (which was notched/boxed slightly for the compressor housings), because I don't like the way the tubular stuff 'feels'. Out of all the f-body's I've driven, it seems like they really feel tighter going down the road with the stock components.

The car is not a daily driver, but I do drive it often and I have gotten stuck in the rain a few times. The only thing in the intercoolers was a few worms, but they hosed right off :).

An excellent display of American hoursepower. A awsome car. OK Farrari's, get some.:bow:
