LPE Twin Turbo Cost
Here I go thinking again. LOL
What is the cost to do a TT LT5???? My first ride in a ZR-1 was in Will's TT 95. More than awesome..........

Re: LPE Twin Turbo Cost
nothing, LPE won't build anymore. I've heard they signed a contract stating they won't do anymore but that could just be ********. Either way, many have tried, none have succeeded

Re: LPE Twin Turbo Cost
Does that thing even run?
Never seen it run. Brett if your gonna do a TT LT5 i would do it the right way,get rid of the stock ECM,closed deck. Turbos have there issues not as glamarous as they seem. LT5 is not cost effective your better off doing a SBC. Pete

Re: LPE Twin Turbo Cost
Aaron actually built two (2) TT ZR-1's. The dyno sheet is in the photos of the 2011 SGC Gathering photos.
I don't think you'll find Aaron willing to build any more.

I'm not super serious about a TT. I was just curious what the cost would be to do it. It takes a lot of $$ to get HP, as everyone knows. I'll probably build a stroker before it's over with. It will be a while though.

Re: LPE Twin Turbo Cost
what about Raptor.....Ron Handlesmann (sp) I may have spelled it wrong. Here's the scoop of what I remember:
he did a low comp build for turbos. It had 300 to 500+ lbs/ft, min reading, from about 3k all the way across till like 6k or maybe 5.5k. You should have seen the graph. Man it was just a thing of beauty. A real stump puller! The chip wasn't even finalized on the pull. I'll go look around and maybe I can find the thread. Tom
