Default Yea

Lol, yea its quite different, it was kinda a idea that just popped into my head and here it is! It spools instantly, i have my wastegates set at 12.5 psi and she is too much to handle! IAT is so cool its a great setup, actually it was too good, cause we melted a piston last weekend, the stock LM7 couldnt handle 87 octane and 12.5 psi! But there is a new setup in the works!!

Well i just had the truck running about a week and it would only go to 5.5 psi and it already had a tank of 87 in it! Well i found a wastegate issue and fixed it and was so impressed of how well it ran with 12.5psi, i couldnt stop to drain the tank and refill, so needless to say after taking a couple of friends for a ride John Force style she self destructed!!

Always makes the most power the moment before it blows!

That is definetely a unique approach to a remote turbo kit.

Lol, yea she was running great, but my new setup with a fuel octane upgrade will run like that all the time!! Yea my remote mount system was built mostly for the show aspect of it, i done alot of research and was sure it would perfrom well, but damn, it really works!
