Considering selling twin turbo lt1 kit
Im considering selling my twin turbo lt1 kit.
-Two true dual ball bearing water cooled Garret GT28R turbos ($1300 each!)
-2.5" piping from the turbos to the front mount intercooler
-Front mount intercooler goes infront of the radiator, capable of flowing air enough for 1050 horsepower I was told.
-Precision turbo Scavenge pump setup for each side, left side scavenge pump setup mounts underneath the front fender by the cruise box and the passenger mounts by the starter. Passenger side scavenge pump is a Mocal.
-Wastegates are built onto each of the turbos
-50mm TiAL blow off valve connected to the intercooler
-Custom exhaust manifolds going to each turbo
-3" downpipes from each turbo and a custom Y pipe, hell the entire thing is custom
-Sheet metal radiator shroud for the inlet turbo pipe from the intercooler which is chrome plated.
- 10 or so -AN lines, -8 mainly and then some -4 for the feed and some more -4 lines for the water cooling on the turbos
- Everything is completely ceramic coated inside out as well!!!!
Im sure there is a lot more that im forgetting but I just cant think of it right now. The only problem with the setup at the moment is that the passenger side turbo is leaking some oil and it will need new seals. There are bigger and smaller turbos out there for this setup that will fit, Including the recently introduced GT2871 turbos which have been known to push evos up to 525 horsepower on a single turbo setup. Im guessing with a twin setup with these upgraded turbos if you want you could get 900rwhp, as the turbo kit stands you can probably get 600rwhp or so out of it. The seals shouldnt be much to replace. There is probably 4k miles on the entire turbo kit, I mainly drove it around to cruises and some races.
Im looking to get about $4000 for the entire considering the passenger side turbo seals need to be replaced.

Turbolocity made one kit, they will probably make you a kit for the $7,000 fee (they dont include the scavenge pump setup that will run ya a pretty penny. I replied JACLT1s and forgot to mention that you will need a BMR tubular k member if you dont already have one.

If you're interested in a trade I have this turbo, which retails for $3400: http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=817 From what I'm told this is the second one of these turbos in the country. It's got a black ceramic coated exhaust housing.
I also have a used Blitz front-mount for a Skyline which retails for $1380 new: http://www.blitz-na.com/Blitz_Intercooler_LM.htm
I'd also throw in a brand new Racegate, Turbo XS RFL BOV, various flanges for the T51R SPL, and a polished fan shroud. I was using all of this for my turbo build, but your twin setup would be easier than doing the fabrication.
