Back in an F-body, time for a turbo!

[1999Black_Z28]

I love your car. I have watched your youtube videos many of times lol. I will definitely take you up on that offer. Let me know if you decide on going with a bigger turbo as well I might pick up your old one.

Thanks for the compliment

Actually you are about 4 weeks late on the turbo I just sold my TC78 and am waiting for my new Comp Turbo to get built (hoping any day now).

Couple other notes:
I highly recommend running a single Walbro 465 (or whatever they call it now...p/n ending in 267) with a front mounted regulator and return line. My fuel pressure is much more stable and it can be pieced together pretty cheaply and easily and it will support more power than your LS1 on 93 octane. I can send more details including p/ns if you are interested.

I also highly recommend going with a ZR1 3 bar map right from the start. It's actually cheaper than the cobalt 2 bar map and much more accurate than other 3 bar maps. It wasn't an option for LS1's until recently but HPtuners now allows for negative offsets to be programmed in.

Only other advice I can think of off hand is to use a decent valve spring ( Brian Tooley duals, etc) and the trunion upgrade for stock rockers. I'm sure there's a lot more so just send me a pm

i had those on my zr1 wheels when i bought them ya they are fine for street driving ride a bit firm with a little thump noise on the cracks in the road till they warm up but still not bad for the price at all

Why not get a fender roller?

The inner fenders is where it rubs, not the outer (right now anyways) if I get a thick adapter then I'll have to worry about rolling the fenders.

SWEET! Congrats! Love the car.

Love the car man. If you want a set of black mirrors to experiment with I have an extra set ill let go for a case of beer.

Also, I 100% vote for spraying the entire car. You'll be glad you did in the end, especially with your connections.

Looks good! Always a fan of that SOM, I also agree with spraying the whole car.

I might hit you up on the offer Joel. Thanks for the kind words! I am definitely leaning towards painting the whole thing. I'm picking up the ss hood and spoiler tomorrow.

Just got them off the shelf. they shine good but have a couple blemishes, we'll make it a 6 pack. I can bring them to the M&G if you can wait that long.

Surprisingly they are pretty easy to spray assembled.

I picked up an OEM ss spoiler today. $200!





The ss hood ended up being a bust. It was in terrible shape. I even pointed out multiple cracks. Not worth my time by any means.

Edit: I gave in and bought 2 new tires for the front 10 spokes. I still need to figure out a spacer/adapter situation. I don't know good ones from bad ones.

I also think I'll be cutting my stock springs in the meantime.
[MENTION=1151]nascarnate326[/MENTION] how many coils did you cut?

[DanDalessandro]

Do you need a strut tower brace? I have a 3pt one that i'd let you have for like $40

It's not really on the priority list right at the moment. I'll keep it in mind though

[nascarnate326]

I took one coil off my front springs but I wish I would have did 1.5.

I guess I just miss the slammed look and my true duals tuck up pretty decent.

Back of my car is stock spring with heater hose. Again, I would like to take just a little more off, maybe half a coil.
