Welcome! Nice looking camaro. What kind of hp are you running/looking to get? Any numbers on the turbo setup?

Welcome! Nice looking camaro. What kind of hp are you running/looking to get? Any numbers on the turbo setup?

members with a similar setup have seen about 505 rwhp (but thats without meth injection) so im hoping for around 550.

[udlose98]

also the turbo, like i said it a turbonetics t70 ceramic ball bearing turbo

t04 style P trim with a .68 A/R

ive only driven the car once since all of this (dealing with a possible cracked cylinder head right now) and the turbo has responded beautifully.

[FANAT1C]

Nice! Congrats on the swap. Hopefully you get the issue resolved and we can see it out.

BTW decent job on your intro. :thumbsup

[michelle]

Very nice car!

[Yooformula]

welcome aboard! nice work there. got any completed pics?

[juicedimpss]

thats one hell of a project.
welcome to the site.

[07ROUSHSTG3]

nice car, welcome!

[BAD LS1]

Thats a pretty largish turbo for a street 3.8, Have you driven it at all yet? i thing Keith has a 70 on his GN and was saying its a bit lazy?

What are you doing for fueling/tuning? boost reffrenced FMU or regulator?

Just seen that you got the ball bearing catridiged one too, baller! Ive got a similar project going on with my LS1, which uses a GT76S plain bearing.

[GRNDNL]

Cool little project.......:thumbsup

[PureSound15]

Badass man! Welcome!

[Prince Valiant]

well the motor revs fast due to the big loose stall, but you need load to spool the turbo, im worried with mine if it starts spining bad enough the load will go away and the turbo will go away till the next gear.

Does HPT have 2 or 3 bar tuning avail for this motor/ECM? i know it was somewhat limited. Im using the 3 bar tuning for mine with a 89' TTA map sensor.

Is 1 255 in-tank gonna be enough for that?

Cool project though!! The header and y config looks very similar to the one im using.

[Flicktitty]

Thats pretty cool, always wanted to see what V6 Camaro's and Stangs could do with a Turbo strapped onto it.

Where does the car reach full boost?

[2SLOW]

hope to find out in the next week or so

[Flicktitty]

Nice, make sure to get some Vids of it too.

i'm betting it will sound like a mix between a 300ZX Turbo and a a Audi S4

Sweet! I've always wondered what a 3.8L Camaro would be like with a Turbo Kit... Guess I might actually have to get on the ball now...

[udlose98]

as soon as its all back together (1-2 weeks) i will definetly get some vids up.....


and as far as the sound, its got a huge cam and 1.7's i posted a vid of it running earlier, not driving tho.

Welcome to the board... I live in the OC now but I've never seen you around... Even when I lived in SM.

[udlose98]

This is the first year i have lived in OC, I am from Franklin originally and thats where the car is until its ready to go.

and likewise, your car would denfiently stand out to me, but now that im in OC this summer, im sure i'll see you around.

[Mssplayboybunie]

Can't wait to see your car around this area, def a head turner. your car looks awesome!

[Lash]

Sweet car! You definitely don't see them like that very often.

[SSDude]

Where in SM were you? I lived there my whole life until a few months ago.

I'm udlose's friend, and helped with the swap. A lot of work has gone into the car, as I'm sure most of you have already experienced. Been signed up for a while, just never posted.
