355 LT1 Turbo initial dyno numbers

Hello all. Just thought I would share that the TA is up and running again. The current setup is a 355 forged motor, ported lt1 heads, Pro Turbo Systems Gen 2 hot parts, t70 with .96 exhaust, spearco air to water (not with water for dyno yet ),6 speed swap, racetronix fuel pump, 60lb injectors, lt1 edit tuned by me.

598rwhp & 600rwtq 7-1-06 graph on page 8
This pull was cut off at 5400rpm, 10 pounds of boost, 10.5/1 air/fuel, not much timing because this was on PUMP GAS.
Track times are coming soon but the ram clutch shattered on me

Thanks for looking, take care.

I guess it's time for a street twin.

I was thinking about the spec 4 since I already have a billet flywheel but if the price isn't too far off i may consider the twin. At least I was able to drive it around some, but after a few full boost shifts the ram went bye bye.

Re: 355 LT1 Turbo initial dyno numbers

Those are nice numbers. If you don't mind my asking, how long did you have to wait for the PTK hot parts?

Re: 355 LT1 Turbo initial dyno numbers

thanks for the kind words!! my 25th was an auto until i pulled the whole powertrain and stored it for my current fun (60k on car).

I don't mind telling anyone about my proturbo experience. I called those poor saps every other day for 6+ months until my kit was on its way. They do excellent quality work and to bolt on a kit of this calibre is worth every penny. That being said they seem to have no idea what a schedule is or how to estimate time (im sure its suppliers and such). If your in a rush take your car out to texas as those people seem to cut in line. Jose at forcedinductions was the main person i dealt with and i've seen him come under fire because things are behind as always it seems. He is not out to screw anyone but if he would start a business instead of a one man band things would be different (let me know when your hiring jose . He deemed it ok to hold all my parts until the hand made kit was on its way even though i paid up front in full (which wont happen again). I don't see anyone needing to complain until it gets like all those other out-of-business turbo companies. You should get your kit dont worry!!!

Re: 355 LT1 Turbo initial dyno numbers

What was the reason for shutting down at 5400 and what exhaust are you running?

Re: 355 LT1 Turbo initial dyno numbers

Thanks guys....i did dyno with the big slicks on the prostars so that cost me some horsepower and a clutch apparently. Im going back to a white wheel for street use here soon.

Jon- i shut down at 5400 because with a 28inch slick and 3.23's i was doing 130mph plus on the dyno in 4th and i don't like that. but now with the driveshaft loop and some street wheels after the clutch ill rev it to 6200ish. Exhaust is straight down pipe until i get all the bugs worked out.

Re: 355 LT1 Turbo initial dyno numbers

Street Twin is the way to go. I have never had a customer complain about that clutch yet.

Nice numbers, with water and some more tuning she has more to gain yet. Even on pump gas.
