Default Twin Turbo LT pic???

I've been looking for a picture of a twin turbo LT-4. I could have sworn that I saw it on the C4 gen forum. I thought it was a GS w/ Callaway Areobody. But I thought they only built one GS and it was a supernatural. Does anyone have any ideas, i've looked a lot and done a lot of searching but can't find the pic. Maybe it was just a really good dream.

Or...does any one have any pics of twin turbo LTx vettes?

thank you...I thought i was going crazy. Anyone else have any pics of this car. So I'm guessing there is no way to put the turbos there and keep AC. Is that correct?

BTF,

You may also want to look into the new Tahoe type vehicles. They have a seperate A/C system for the rear that should be all electric. Gotta keep it GM

I have a 2005 Tahoe, but I thought the rear used the same belt driven compressor as the front. I am only speculating. I don't know the answer, but I could find out.

Thanks...do you know how much they run and can you plumb them into the stock AC. Also, the powerbox is just to supply it power??? Like a dedicated capacitor to supply power???

I love how one of the turbos is actually turned the other way to have it work. Very nice job. What does she run for boost? And what are the quarter mile times on that bad boy??

I have to much torque with the shot of juice , which blew up my transmission into pieces , the hot transmisson fluid under higher pressure spilled out onto engine and red-hot turbochargers and you have the results !
