I don't know the answer to your question, but wanted to welcome you to the forum.

Hopefully 240ZTT will be back to let you know.

Thank you for your hospitaliy

Cowboy, To answer a couple of your questions, here is some information I got from reading some other posts. 7.5psi with two Garrett GT30R turbochargers. 565rwh/532rwt- before the Xpipe.

I just realized that after my post. Thanks for pointing that out. I feel like a blonde

the stage I is now going back to be converted to a stage II with lower compression and high boost. same basic setup for the manifolds, turbos, plumbing, and intercooler.

the stage II is the one to really watch. with high compression, only low boost is really possible, but it allowed to sort out the configuration and get an idea of how well things will work. the stage II will really run some big numbers but obviously will cost more since you need to do the 368 conversion too.

only way to fly IMHO. turbos and high compression only work really well with race gas or alchy if you are running enough boost to make it worthwhile.

SGC definitely got some impressive numbers out of the stage I, but the stage II will be the monster.

stage I is a great alternative to a full boogie 415 as it produces very similar power numbers and a stock idle.

the stage II will rotate the earth, with those same great street manners!!

my daily driver is a buick turbo, and it does really well for a bent 6 buford.

the turbo tech is where it's at!!!

Holy Cow! so those numbers were from a Stage I with stock Compression. any update on the Stage II?

ZROne · 08-03-2005

Ron, do you know if they are going to integrate with existing 368's or will SGC be doing these only on their own builds?

engine will be redone with low compression pistons but a 368 would save the bucks on liners/rods, ect..

I have a pristine rotating assembly from my stock 95 lt5 *lpe take out parts from my original car* cool stuff

I believe it will take some time to sort all this out as these projects take alot of r&d

great to see SGC doing this stuff. I think a 390 TT should be in my future but it's a way out. gotta wear out this stroker first.

Give it to me Ron.....I'll ware it out during my 45 mile round trip commute.

Hy guys I decided to see what you are talking about over here. I like the babes section. I wish my wife looked like that but I bet shed be a real pain in the butt if she did and I couldnt afford her anyway. Back to the subject, Bill Kirchhoffer told me he built a S/C lt5 talk to him about it.

That's a real healthy torque curve! I can only imagine how it must feel to be sucked through the back of the seat! Who's going to be first?
