I don't know yet. I have only been able to take it to the 1/8th. The times weren't a whole lot better than factory. It was completely my fault... 8.8 @ 96 mph... TRACTION gods were offended. Terrible 60' times also. I don't remember what exactly. I have had a whole lot more experience with the car since then and I believe that I will make a significant improvement.

there's not a whole lot you can tuck away the wires with these newer generation cars. the only thing i say you can do is add some braided stainless steel sleeves or replace with after market hoses/wires that should give a nice finish touch to it. i'm not much into chrome parts. i like both of chrome and colors combination in the engine bay.

Thanks wht. I would like the engine bay to look more respectable though. Just a tangle of wires...

Holy Wow! I love the turbo LS4!

Um, as far as wires there really isn't much that you can do unless you rewire it or throw some wire loom over some of that (I don't recommend that). I understand why you don't like the engine's looks with the engine cover off, but I really do like it without the cover better. Show off that V8

Hm...

How much did this turbo setup cost? Where'd you get it? Any dyno results?
