They all look sick!!!

Chris,

Does that glider come with a 5 point harness? Those things can pick up some serious rocking speed and knock you right out of the chair



SILVZ06 was that car on some recent videos at a certain event in texas? It looks familiar...

Many vendors on this site offer financing, in case you didn't know. Realizing that fact made me a little more at ease with the thought of possibly pulling the trigger on a blower one day.

we did a single setup on my buddies 02 C5. low boost (5-7psi) 500whp with a Single GT4088 Garrett Turbo: Sorry for the crappy phone pics. I think we ended up ~3K total into it... (these are early mock up pics so they ugly, it was clean when we were all done)
* 6.0L manifolds (upside down)
* Custom X-Over and turbo support bracket
* Custom boost pipes
* Shortened Ron Davis radiator (still bottom feed) with custom coolant pipes)
* HUGE front mount with HKS BOV
* Ti mufflers
* SD tune

I think Danzglass is the best $/HP I have seen on a turbo setup. Clean install too. If you do it yourself, it can be pretty reasonable.

TTiX tiger shark 2003 Z06 currently puts 800 at the tire with meth

taking the car to the next level. haltech s2000 with dual wide band and 8 channel egt, 127 fic bosch injectors, e85, magnafuel pump,

upgrading the turbos with the .82 exh housings, and champion 3" downpipes (very nice stuff). some fresh magnaflow cats

like to also do a flapper c6 style exhaust system with the straighter pipes

you cut up the trunk a bit but what the hell, this is no stocker

ill be doing a shortblock, turbo cam from tick, and a s476r HO next winter. should be interesting. Probably a ams 1000 for boost buy gear. or lg spindles and some 15in welds.

Yea if one was to do this turbo setup on there own it would be not to bad at all. thing is rock solid! no issues so far. this little 5.3 is holding up to the power no problem love it!

just installed a fully built tr6060/c6z diff, act twin disk and coil overs. so getting all this thing dialed back in again. fenders are here but the welds are out a month. almost done for the year!!!
