I had to remove the wg mufflers. I couldn't control the boost with them on. I don't care from the open wg sound so I need to figure that out.

here is stock vs e85 vs 5psi.

after looking at the chart I can see I have some work to do. not smooth at all, super low timing down low, throttle starts to close on its own at 4900rpm, tq seems to be dropping off kind of quick up top. stock muffler is probably hurting me a little. I think I might install some cut outs and dial things in a little better before I fire up the port injection and add more boost.

all that being said the car really runs hard. i am beating cars that should be much quicker than me. the car seems to use the power that it has really well. it hooks consistently well considering it has 20" rims and pulls hard up top. if this is what 5psi feels like 12psi is going to be nuts.

This is leaving with no boost and ramping up to 5psi in 1st and going to 10psi right after the 1-2 shift. The car is getting quicker. I need to work on my 60' some.

I am not knocking AGP, but my low mount turbos pulled in some water in my 5th gen 1LE. Not enough to damage the motor though. That damage came later..... Watch out for heavy flash storms.

Loved the turbos but my Wategates and BOV were not muffled. That was annoying. No shop wanted to pipe the gates into the down pipe. The muffler resonator is a good idea!

Running good! I started out at 6 pounds myself, then moved to 10 after installing a boost controller and tune. For a good run 60' is the key. Tough with turbo. Best run was 11.4 @ 129 even with lousy 60's (M6). It was fun running cars down.

OP that MSD is not helping your launch. Maybe try a ported stocker.

Based on my 1/8mile and other slips from boosted camaros I would guess I am around 10.50 at nearly 140mph. Seems strong to me for just a soft launch, only 5psi up until 60mph and just 10psi from there.

I am seeing a ton of timing while brake boosting it on the line. Like 40deg. I am going to drop that to some very low number and see if i can build some boost at the starting line.

I need the msd intake for the injector bungs. The car needs a number of parts to launch harder. Converter, axles/driveshaft and something other than 20" rims would help a ton.

Agp has a similar and very nice kit for sale. I helped install one. If you want some twins you can get them. It's just money.

If you dont mind me asking what was the total cost for this setup not including port injection and the intake manifold?

I consider going a similar route but the last bottom mount setup I built left me on the fence. Seemed my air filters being that low were constantly dirty no matter how often i cleaned them, then came the worry of taking in water and lastly I was no fan of the oil pump. it seemed like just one more thing to fail. Mine blew a fuse once on a very cold day, i think it was drawing too many amps trying to pump the cold oil, anyways I had no idea until i was burning oil and had a puddle of oil under my car leaking out of my exhaust.

Those are reasonable concerns. The agp kit has a pair of 3" air filter tubes that get the filters up where they should be. This is my 3rd set up with a return pump. Once I had the initial bugs worked out I have never had an issue.

I would guess about $5k in parts to do it myself. That is witjout that monster custom intercooler. That got me over $6k for sure. Everything is high quality. Stainless everything, billet wheel turbos, best oil return pump.

The agp kit at its introductory price of $8k was a real bargain. The efr turbos they package with the kit are expensive.
