Default 408 with GTS-76 rear mount turbo video


Just click on picture....I was alone today, so i just put the camera on the ground. Would have been much nicer if someone could have taken for me.

Cam is 232/240 @ .50 lift .595/.608 115 lsa. Bob and the boys at EPP did the set up for me. Its on thier project cars page. I just had an exhaust leak fixed, but before they fixed the leak she laid down just a tad shy of 700 horse at the wheels on their mustang dyno. The temperture and humidity was terrible that day, with better weather, and leak fixed, she would have been well over 700. Unfortunately, my 60lb injectors was all done at 11.5 lbs of boost. The turbo was just starting to breathe.

Im glad everything is working out for you Scott!

Guys this car pulls as hard as it sounds,

Here is a link to his build from the start, http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com...Car.php?car=32

After chasing down fuel pump issues with the aeromotive eliminator pump, running large return lines, pump controller and still over heating, we replaced the pump and now its good as new!

With the larger amount of backpressure in the rear mount systems, we ran V-bands on his long tube slps to the Y pipe.

Man too bad the vid got all choppy on me, it sounded great tho, the audio played normal.

So give us some seat of the pants description of it. Sounds like it flat out hauls ***.

Very impressive car there ! So read the entire build Not sure it said what heads it had on there now. Be very curioius to see how it does at the track. Cam sounds good too.
I am a bit worried seeing he already used up his injectors. I thought with more fuel pressure you could push the 60s quite a bit farther.

I am thinking about the same setup for mine. I heard to stay away from those STS's they take to long to spool up and they loose psi . After watching this video I am second guessing all the myths. If my car would run just like that one then I am down for the rearmount. Only difference is my car is LT4 so I don't think I can get that many cubic inches and the sidewalls be reliable so maybe a 383. I want 700-750 rwhp it is a streetcar. This vid is badass and so is car. I had my mind made up on procharger but after watching this I am thinking about STS.

I have been in two sts cars. One was stock lt1 and one was stock ls1 except for the sts at 5psi. Both cars pulled really good and were decently fast surprisingly fast.
The sts spool up decently quick depending on which turbo you get and hold boost just fine.
That said ground clearance is a problem with the sts and you for sure want stock height car. Buddy is terrifed to go over train tracks with his. Also sts is pretty expensive these days when you add in price for intercooler. I am sure I will be happy with my APS twin kit but they dont' make kits for the lt1s yet. I think will go prochargers some day on my 96z although don't like gear rattle of the prochargers at idle too much. But they do work pretty good.

Anyway you willl be happy with the sts forget what people say about them not working they work fine. That car is visible proof.
