wow that is a lot to read.......just made it through all 18 pages and have a few questions.

first question is for sharif.. i am looking into going with the greddy twin turbo set up and a built motor at the end of this year. what all do you recommend me getting (right now my car is stock 05 non revup motor)

second question is for alberto..what do you do for a living because i go to college (graduate this year) and have two jobs and still need some funds.

last of all congrats on your very nice setup, i wish i could see that thing fly down the track when you take it. congrats sharif on another well built and tuned motor, maybe ill have to drive up to see you when i graduate

Depending on what happens in Hawaii in the next few years (if I go back to a Z or not) I might be paying you a visit, Sharif.

Most people will start with a forced induction setup, and then add a built motor later, as doing everything at once costs quite a bit of money.

The very solid Greddy Package looks like this..on stock engine.
Greddy TT kit with intercooler
CJM Return Fuel System
Walbro 255 pump
Greddy BOV and flange (or whatever BOV you prefer)
Blitz SBC-iD boost controller, or HKS EVC...both very good boost controllers
UTEC and Pressure Sensor
APS 3 inch true dual exhaust
Installation and tuning

This setup is good for about 400whp very safely.

Little update...I have 2000 miles on the motor now, no issues at all, its running GREAT. 1500-2000 more miles and I'll start running the Motul I have sitting here. BTW-here is a quick vid I just shot, first time with the camera mount in this location. I'll zoom in to the tach/speedo only next time so you can see it better-as this isnt very clear First run is uphill from 45-150mph, 2nd run is from somewhere in 2nd gear to 140mph...low boost on both.

"really judge, that video is computer generated, I paid a studio $30k to generate that photorealisic animation and I have the receipt to prove it"

Low boost is still keeping me very happy. As you can see 2nd gear is worthless....I'll do a much better, clearer, high boost run soon

Default What a hunk of junk!!!

Give me my engine back!!!!!, The deal was never finalized,I need it back asap!! Seriously, I'll buy it back from you for double what you paid, lol. You're a genuinely nice guy man, Big congrats on a successful installation, sick ride, love the video. You are definately an inspiration to guys like me who just can't find the mojo to spend that kind of money. Enough chit chat-SEND THOSE ZO6'S TO HELL !!!! MUHAHAHAH!!!

nice vid bert. i am thinking about keeping my car now. i've been talking to sharif and might send my car up in dec to get the L19's installed and have the car retuned up to 18-20psi on pump gas and go for 600whp on his dyno. If I get the FCON navigator I can have sharif set up a race gas map and go for 650whp.

enjoy your and be safe.
