Upgraded APS kit?
Bought an FRC with an APS twin kit on it. What does it take to upgrade to a GT35R turbo or something similar? Also what about the APS piping upgrades did that ever come out?

Call Harry at Precision turbo. He did an upgrade for a guy that has his system for sale in the parts section. The upgrade was to 67mm turbos I think. They're good for ~1400hp total. You'll make bigger power with the increase in displacement for sure. AtomicC6 is making ~700+rwhp with his C6 APS kit. You'll need to straighten out the inlets for more power as well.

the is a thread in the C6 section called APS updates that i started. worth having a look at as there is a lovely inlet upgrade someone has built!
on the turbos the GT35R's will flow about 65lbs/min each. thats pretty good for the size! the F-body guys are getting a turbo upgrade in the very near future. APS are not using GT35s for them but a similar turbo with the same flow rates.
not sure whats happening for the C5 though....
