: Now Joining the Twin Turbo Vette Club!
Murder-1 10-31-2008, 10:08 AM Time to hear the turbo's spool.
I picked up a HP style Performance kit yesterday afternoon to put on the 383 Stroker.
Nothing insanely big (Twin 50 mm turbo's) but should make some good numbers through my built A4.
I like the kit because there aren't many mods to do to complete the install.
The engine bay will still have the factory look as the turbo's are behind the front wheel as pictured below:

Should have the work complete within the next couple of weeks.
Going to change my heads to create a larger chamber so we can crank up the boost a bit more than originally planned.
Will be entering the 9 second quarter mile club @ 150mph+ very soon. :thumbsup3:

hammatime 10-31-2008, 11:38 AM That is very cool, you say that it is a 383 stroker that is in your Vette now? What kind of numbers would you guestimate?

Thanks!
That is very cool, you say that it is a 383 stroker that is in your Vette now? What kind of numbers would you guestimate?
Yes sir, I have a fully forged 383 Stroker in the car now. The turbo system should get me in the 800rwhp range. I do have to do a slight bit of head work though but that shoudln't be too bad.
tstar 10-31-2008, 10:14 PM I was looking at their system, they sell on EBay too don't they?
Kinda torn between APS and HP Style now thanx to your post! :banghead:
eastcoaster 11-01-2008, 07:23 AM How many lbs are you going to put on it? Are you upgrading the fuel system and running Meth?

Not sure if they sell on Ebay. The link for the system is here: http://www.hpperformance.com/corvetteturbosystems.htm
How many lbs are you going to put on it? Are you upgrading the fuel system and running Meth?
Were going to play with the boost and see where we can take it somewhat safely.
My fuel system should be ok, I am in fact looking into a meth system though.
Cozmo 11-02-2008, 08:06 AM I've not heard of that company, I spend time reading the Corvette magazines and by far not a mechanic but know what advertisments I see. I would like to get something like that someday. For now just working on getting new exhaust!
Post some video's up. How do they sound?

They sound good. I've talked to a lot of my buddy's with 1000rwhp+ about the kit. They all love it.
Anywho, here is a link with a bunch of examples of HP kits on rides. I believe the corvette vid is third down or so.

BLU COLLAR Z 11-02-2008, 09:59 AM like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But that butt you got makes me so horny
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen them dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' LIKE A TURBO VETTE
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to shake it! (Shake it!) Shake it! (Shake it!)
Shake that healthy butt!
Baby got back!
(LA face with Oakland booty)
Baby got back!
[Sir Mix-a-Lot]
I like 'em round, and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I wanna get you home
And ugh, double-up, ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy
'Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-Lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneeded bimbos walkin' like hoes
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sisters, I wanna get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna ******
Till the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of simps won't like this song
'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies! {Yeah!} Ladies! {Yeah}
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes {Yeah!}
Then turn around! Stick it out!
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back!
Baby got back!
Yeah, baby ... when it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothin'
to do with my selection. 36-24-36? Ha ha, only if she's 5'3".
[Sir Mix-a-Lot]
So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you've got buns, hun
You can do side bends or sit-ups,
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers wanna play that "hard" role
And tell you that the butt ain't gold
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that!
'Cause your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines:
You ain't it, Miss Thing!
Give me a sister, I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
'Cause his girls are on my list
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And I pull up quick to get wit 'em
So ladies, if the butt is round,
And you want a triple X throw down,
Dial 1-900-MIXALOT
And kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back!

Will be entering the 9 second quarter mile club @ 150mph+ very soon. :thumbsup3:
That set up looks great . is it good on the street ? Like riding around town ?.............:patriot:
Murder-1 11-04-2008, 06:15 AM That set up looks great . is it good on the street ? Like riding around town ?.............:patriot:
Should be, thats where it will spend 70% of it's driving life. It won't be a daily driver but it will be on the road at least three days a week. (I live in Houston, it is rainy and cold for about 10 days a year, other than that, year round driving weather).
Blackhorse Zo6 11-04-2008, 02:14 PM I know about Houston I lived there when I was a kid ( back in the 50's:1zhelp: ).
Thats good to hear about using the twin turbos on the street & that is a sweet looking set up ..............:patriot:
bigblock427 11-04-2008, 02:24 PM Murder 1,
You have an awesome Vette. :thumbsup3:
stillkicking 11-05-2008, 07:09 AM How is the heat issue on these set ups?
Murder-1 11-05-2008, 07:16 AM How is the heat issue on these set ups?
Heat should not be an issue as the turbo's and hot plumbing are not in the engine bay (behind the front tires on the other side of the fender well.)
smokinC5 11-05-2008, 07:44 AM That is a cool looking setup, you will undoubtedly have fun in that Vette!
whitesnake01 11-05-2008, 02:38 PM That is going to be nasty!!!!! Talk about putting you in your seat!
David 11-05-2008, 05:59 PM looks cool, I like the way they mount, if you do mind my asking, how much do they sell for?

No problem at all. A brand spanking new kit from the vendor would run you roughly $9000 once all was actual in your garage.
However, you can certainly find them cheaper than that by searching for someone who bought a kit that never pulled the trigger on installing it, etc, etc. I was lucky and found a guy selling the kit for under half of retail. :thumbsup3:
darren6114 11-07-2008, 01:55 AM great deal now all you need to do is send me your headers lol. seriously though how much are you looking to sell your headers for?
Murder-1 11-07-2008, 07:04 AM great deal now all you need to do is send me your headers lol. seriously though how much are you looking to sell your headers for?
Not sure yet but it will be cheap. Leaving for Mexico today for some fun in the sun but next week I'll be able to give specifics on prices.
Will also have a complete NX Nitrous kit that also comes with 2 bottles, bottle warmer, bottle mount, assortment of jet sizes, dual spray nozzle and a window switch.
Will also have a complete set of 42lb injectors.
Probably better I start a new thread for all items for sale so I can post some pics of it all.
Thanks!
Jeremy
