Default A&A twin turbo

I've decided to go ahead and develop a twin turbo for both the C5 and C6. I've obviously had great success with the superchargers and, quite frankly, am tired of being asked "when are you going to do a turbo system"
I have a master header builder just down the street. He builds turbo headers for all kinds of weird stuff. He just finished A Pantera with two HUGE turbos. There was 57 Chevy there a while ago that ran in the high SIXES that had turbos that took a cherry picker to install! ( slight exageration) With his help I can have any header and tubing configuration imagineable. He can bend and weld anything. You should see the brushed stainless stair railings he built for my house. They're unbelieveable!
Not to mention that a little advice from my neighbor, Kenny Duttweiller wouldn't hurt.
I definately have all the connections, parts accessabilty, and knowhow at my disposal. Why not?
I just hope I can dedicate enough time to the project without neglecting my other obligations.

Sweet. Congrats on the decision. Always nice to see new kits in the works. Have you given any thought yet about whether it will be a top kit like PTK/Halltech or hung low like TTi and LPE ?

Probably a little early to ask about price.

Cheers,

Mark

You think you get a lot of questions now on your s/c's. Your going to spend all day on the phone.

That sounds great though, any idea on prices, will you offer different packages

I'm sure your turn out a nice system.

If you need any input PM me as I have had alot of experience in the import tuner world on custom twin set ups.

That's great. That wouldn't happen to have been Ed Thorton's chevy?
I think Kenny might be able to help you just a tad.
Need a test mule?

You might be the only one who could convince me to do FI on my C5.

Please keep us updated on your progress.

I'd love to have something that could make 700rwhp on 93 octane and 1000rwhp on race gas without spending over $20k for the kit.

Already out there - it's called the TTi X kit. 700 rwhp on a 346 ci at 13-14 #'s of boost.

$20K is easily spent by the time you factor in forged motor, reworked fuel system, etc, etc.

Cheers,

Mark

Great news . Looking forward to hearing more about your TT kit . A couple of questions:
1. Are you planning to do the C5 kit first, then C6 or the other way around?
2. Any ETA when the C5 kit will be ready?
Estimated Price?
3. Will kit be complete or will there be need to purchase anything else, e.g., injectors?
4. What will be included in kit?
5. What size turbos?
6. How much RWHP/TQ are you estimating on non-Z06 C5 with stock motor and pump gas (93 octane)?
7. Are you expecting to relocate any items in engine bay?
8. Will it be a true bolt on kit or will any cutting/welding required to install the kit?
9. Any warranty with the kit?
10. Can the turbos be upgraded later on?

I hope the kit is stealth (underneath). I looked at a lpe 427TT and it looked stock from the top. That would be a big selling point to some here especially around inspection time.

I would like to see a single Turbo kit but there is no way to make an efficient kit by looking at the engine bay area
