PM Phil (RoadRebel) if you want specifics. I doubt he will give you anything beyond the fact that they are T3/T4 Hybrids.

I think you misunderstood. I have the specs. I had them before I bought the kit. I did not develop the turbos, I don't feel right posting that up. Phil developed the kit and if he wants to post up the specifics.. that is his game.

I dont have the specs of the turbos, but I really do not care. Phil told me what I needed to know and the other 40X customers #'s tell me what I need to know. The kit makes way more power than I will ever be able to use.

I'm sprayin over 5psi. Venture up to 8 or 10 on spray. I did tune with spray enabled. Tuning without spray makes me nervous. Doesn't the spray keep things cool and let me sneak along until I forge the bottom end? I'm not forged yet. What about a boost cutoff when meth runs dry?
ps. AEM has a cool new boost controller gauge that shuts off overboost. Anyone tried that yet?

thanks man
yep ive really wanted to get one for about a year of so now.. but lately i have got the urge to get one really BAD.. i got a beat down by a black 03 z06 with headers, exhaust and intake..
i would love to keep the goat.. it is my first new car.
but you have to make room for new thingsi test drove one yesterday.. 02 eb with 35k miles.. it was in pretty good shape. the only thing i was kind of bummed on was the quality of the interior.. does not even come close to the gto! but hey what ever! the z06 was bone stock to.. pretty quick.. much different feeling than the gto.. after wards i let the guy drive my gto.. he liked it quite a bit!! Vortech Goat FTW!

I dont think anything is going to come close to the quality of our interiors. The Z06 is going to become my project car. I want to keep the GOAT and pass it on. It will definately be a classic, especially our years. As far as what I want to do with the Z06, Im looking at either the TT STS or with a pretty wicked H/C setup. IM here, our site, and LS1Tech almost all day researching.
