For a car doing distance work like yours, it would have no negative impact at all.
I would also say that given the rear mount turbos, throttle response and power delivery isnt as fast as it might be with closer mounted turbos anyway and shorter pipe runs ?
If you were circuit racing or something that required lots of throttle use and good throttle response, it might have a fairly small negative impact, but it would be small.
I've done similar on 4cyl turbo engines that do see varied use, and it's never posed a problem.
Obviously you wouldnt move it miles away though

New Year new look:

With the car gone I built some new furniture for the house:
Who needs a pickup...
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I could go widebody for aestetics but Im already stuffing in 345s in the narrow panels without issue. I don't want any extra drag hurting my top speed.
By having a second set of rims Ill run Toyo R888s on my 18s for cornering.

Hey man, race day is nearing! Can't wait to see this car in person.
Just had a question about your Cylinder head choice. I have a thread going in the FI section, you can reply there so as to not hijack this thread.
I know you went with RHS and shaft mount rockers. Would love to hear your opinion of my setup options.
Also, did you stick with Ls7 stock exhaust manifolds? Any clearance issues with the 6 bolt? Did that affect your head selection?

OK...you wanna start with me? First I don't drive around the highways of Chicago doing burnouts in front of police stations in my Batman suit!
I built my own setup I did not have "DADDY" stroke the check for God knows how much. Your a spoiled little bitch that dropped out of a the right vagina.
Your the idiot. Making claims of 2500HP is ridiculous and I am sure others would agree.
I made the suggestions that you should run a firewall inside the cabin of your car since you car ~15 gallons of E85 in it and you got offended!
Travis makes the suggestions to install a roll cage and once again instead of saying "thanks" you come off like you ****ing know it all!
Well guess what Mr. Know it all, your now playing with the big boys! Failures will and do happen and should you toss some oil on your rear tires or one of the thousands of things that can go wrong! Remember your going to make a 2500 HP. You will wish that you had every possible safety option in that car!

Food for thought.
In the event that the sinister did 203 the alpha 16s were doing 199.
Those are 1600awhp cars
This time around things are better.

I like my rhs heads. I'm sure ron has data on how they outflow the competition

Damn Sinister....I used to think you were a cool dude but after the last few pages I have lost respect for you. You clearly have no clue who Nick Yoskin is or what he has done with the turbo Corvette community.
Anyone can drop a car off at a shop with a blank check and make it fast. I guess there are still people out there with more money than brains...

what's the altitude where your racing over there? Ob prestige lambo that is 1900-2k did 230 in the standing half over here on the west coast. In the middle of a build on my z06 to hunt down some of these 2r and alpha cars in the half.
