My twin turbo adventure, UPP TT C6 M6
Greetings from Wyoming. I've done a lot of reading on this forum and have learned a ton. After months of researching I've decided on a twin turbo setup for my 2006 Z51. I have to say right off that the guys at UPP have been instrumental in my making this decision. Every time I've contacted them they've been very helpful.
I've decided on their twin turbo setup with their fuel system and a new clutch. The car is a manual with a completely stock LS2 in it right now. I hope to be somewhere near the 700 WHP mark after the turbo install. I plan on running E85 and having UPP do the install (they're 6 or 7 hours away from me). Does anyone have experience with this kit on E85? How much power did it make?
I decided to do a write up on this kit and my experience with it because I wasn't able to find anyone else who had reviewed it on here. I'll take before and after pictures and hopefully someone in the future will be able to make an educated decision based on my results. Currently, I'm waiting on some final numbers for what this adventure is going to cost me. After that it's time to make a trip to Colorado! Stay tuned!

It's been a while since I've posted so I thought I'd get on here and update. I owe that to all the people who gave me such a warm welcome! I decided to pull the trigger on a new C7. The twin turbo kit started to spiral out of control price-wise and before I knew it, it made more sense just to buy a new car! Thanks to everyone who's posted on these forums- the education I've got is priceless. I'm sad I wasn't able to make the project work out, I really wanted to document the build for everyone else. Perhaps with the new car...

Pretty sure JBrantoni is the north shore speed car with the crazy top mount setup.
