Nice.

Camaros are weird. My roommate has one camaro with 650whp and it runs an 11.20 and another camero with 420whp that runs a 10.80.

its also a rear turbo set up on the camaro, so lag will be substatially larger than it regularly would be and will not make as much power.

420whp and a 10.80? That is pretty much impossible unless the Camaro lost lots and lots of weight and had slicks, short gears, and a good posi. Camaros are heavy. Most weigh 3200-3500 lb. and with 400whp you should be running low 12's, maybe a high 11.

The only people who say that are the ones that have never driven a conventionally mounted turbo setup.



Better power curve is a conventional T70 @ 14 psi. Worse power curve is an STS T70 @ 14 psi. Conventional setup had some spark blowout and that's why it wasn't going as high. Gains at some points are over 100 RWTQ with the front mount setup. Yeah, the STS kits are pretty good alright Front mount numbers are SAE, STS kit numbers are actual and with cold temps, so the difference would be even greater SAE to SAE.
