        How much will a TT reduce reliability? I would definatly be interested unless there is a chance of higher than normal engine falure rate. This is my summer DD and I would like to cuise more than be in the garage. LOL

            Anytime you are running 1000hp you generally don't use it as a dd

              Darn, guess i would go with the single turbo kit then. How many HP does the stage 1 kit push?

                you can still use a TT as DD, just dont use too much boost. TT's just have a lot more lowend power as well

                    Drool! Can't wait to see a V6 LS1 Killer!

                      His single setup even with torque convertor problems was running on par with a stock or lid/catback LS1. This new setup should be a real killer! I'd love to have a turbo V6 for a daily driver.

                          I cant wait eather, Im ready to dyno the thing now, But it will be at the least this spring before any dynoing and tunning will be done, we have lots of Work to Be done, Engine, Make the Headers, Trans, Rear End, Cage, Custom Drive shaft. Tubbular k-member, and A-Arms..
                          For all you woundering about my Turbo kits, They will make any where from 300rwhp to 400rwhp Depending on your setup and how many miles you have on your car, I generaly dont like to put a kit on if it has over 100,000 miles on it, I would recumend a refresh job to the engine,

                            That is awsome! Great job. I cant wate to see pics. Sometimes V6's dont get alot of respect, but your car will be respected now.
