Default F-body LS1 turbo headers

Heres just a few pictures of the new build up
























after great results with the masterpower T70. I decided to go back to an MP T76 Q trim. my powegoals for this setup with the T56 6-speed is only 800 on 91 pump with 100% meth injection. Anything more than 800 is an issue with the transmission. Plus my clutch and fuel setup is limited to about that power.

750 in this car is downright scary hahah . 800's just one of those numbers .. sounds so good it rolls off the tongue

Fabrication looks great, but I would worry about the reliability of that turbo.

the reliability is good. i ran my last T70 for 2 years @ 650 WHP without a drop of leakage past the exhaust seal. the intake was slightly damp but that wasn't anything out of the norm.

What level of boost are you looking for on this setup? What was the level on your T70? I wonder if lower boost levels are the key to using these turbos.

on the T70 it was pushign 14 -15 psi

i dont care how much boost I gotta run. honestly i'd be happy with 750 cuz thats what it was before. but if I can achieve it with a better power band that'd be great

Looks good...it still baffles me how people fit more crap under the hood of a Camaro. There isn't much room, but theres ALWAYS room for a turbo setup
