is there any more lag than a normal turbo setup? would that be too much power for an auto?

I don't think very much since the mufflers were removed but with the intercooler/slave oil pumps and plumbing, I'm guessing maybe 75lbs.

i'm guessing yes, there's going to be a touch more lag than if the turbos were mounted in the engine bay. a lot more heat though also. but with 400hp base, you really don't think much about it.

That being said, when they do "spool" up, your smile is priceless

My motor head friend from SD called the trip around the block I gave him "Death Ride 2012".

When turbos spool up on an engine like the LS2/3, it absolutely blows your mind...... and your pocketbook should a cop be nearby.
