Re: Raptor turbo's, what's the word??
Well we've been working hard on the LT1 kit and are getting real close to release. So... the ZR1 has been sitting waiting for me to install new coil packs, wires, and a DIS module. It was throwing codes on the dyno so we were waiting on me...
I finally was able to get over to the shop today and replace the parts. I'll have it together tomorrow and it should go on the dyno afterwords. We do have 10 sets of ZR1 TT Pipe sets already made. We just focusing on the LT1 for now. Cheers, Ron

There's a chance I might be moving back to CO. If that happens, I'll be looking for "boost" for sure!!

Re: Rapter turbo's, what's the word??
Oh, nothing imminent, Dom. Thinking retirement "in a few", and CO is my adopted home, except for one(?) thing... Lemme put it this way: They don't set many 1/4 records at "Mile High Dragway"! Besides...I'd miss all the friends I've met here in IL; you, and the Z IL brothers to be sure. So, "no rush". Having said that, before I put sleeves in my LT5, I'd have to give turbos and low(er) compression pistons a real hard look!

Re: Rapter turbo's, what's the word??
Paul, let me know if you need a house out there in CO. I still have mine up for sale in Castle Rock, purfect or you and the Misus. Ranch, 3 beds, pano view of the Rockies, walkout giant basement and 3 car gargage too.
If I was still in CO the Rapter would be #1 on my list. You loose 20-25% of your power at the altitude in Denver. My old L98 was a real dog there and I didn't appreciate the power of my LT5 till I took it down to Vegas for my first gathering. Altitude sucks... but otherwise a great place to live, I'd go back if I could. Hans
