I have a couple questions.
How much boost are you daily driving on, and how much can it handle safely?
Car has not been daily driven. I have put a couple hundred miles on the car/setup all summer at 6-7 psi. Based on others dyno numbers I would guestimate mid 400's as it sits. I had plans of one day upping the boost to 10-12lbs and getting a solid mid 500 number out of it. Some people have pushed the stock bottom ends in the 600's to the wheels but I personally wouldn't voyage much higher then mid 500's.
Is the bottom end still stock?
Stock long block
Has it been dynotuned? HP/TQ Numbers?
No time on the dyno, I have it street tuned via HPTuners right now and anticipated putting it on the dyno if/when I upped the boost. Like I mentioned before I would guess the car is in the 400's somewhere.
Ever seen the track?
Nope the car has never been to the track NA or boosted. I built the car to be something fun and different. I dont have time to race at the track and am not willing to take the risk doing it on the street.
I'm kind of prematurely looking for a car, and a turbo T/A sounds fun.
Damn only if I waited a year! Very nice! GLWS
Do you have a built trans/rear end?
Thanks, Trans and rear is stock. From what I can tell they both are doing just fine but I haven't beat on the car so I don't see a reason for much concern. If you were to throw a stickey tire on the car you might run a higher risk breaking something but being an auto and turbo the stress on the rear is a bit lower then a clutch dumping 6 speed.
Did you do the turbo kit install yourself? Did you piece it together or did it all come together, if it was all together, do you have a link to where you got it from?
Sorry for the million questions, I'm interested and if I do pick this up from you it will have to be without me having set eyes on it at all since I'm in afghan land and I won't be home again till October.
Also I'm pretty ignorant on F-bodies, is there any work it's going to need in the near future since I guess the turbo kit is somewhat new?
What are the extras not listed in the add that come with the car?
Krash - check your PMs.
Sounds good, if you have any questions feel free to ask, I did more research on this thing then I would have ever imagined. Everything went together pretty smoothly thoughI got it man thanks I'll let you know, talking it over with the boss and doing some research.

May entertain some trades. Will add cash on top of the car for the right 03/04 cobra
As much as I would love to take this off your hands, the boss has said no. She wants me to get a Shelby lol... I'm not going to argue this, afterall she does control half the money and all the poon.
I guess motivated isn't the correct term, more like starting to be more alright with the idea of selling it. I usually get attached to my cars due to the amount of time spent working and learning about them. I would really love to see it stay local and go to someone who will take good care of it.^This makes me sad
I hope it stays in the TCG family though. Someone needs to buy this T/A.
damn mike! already?! good luck man! maybe i'll have to check my budget for you! i've always wanted to add a boosted ls1 to the family!
give me a call when you are back in town!
