Almost done, choosing turbos, computer, trans. Ideas?
The guys that are working on my car have some fast cars of their own. They think the project would be better off with twin gt30r's than anything bigger. After so much effort on the project, it would be a tradgedy to choose wrong now.
ls400 motor
4 angle valve job on the heads.
JE 2618 custom pistons 8.2:1
pauter rods
3" exhaust, hollowed out cats
2 walboro 255 l/h pumps
4 10lb bottles of nitrous, 2 solenoids wet system, only 100 shot right now. (can't retard timing with stock computer, for very big shots yet.)
Computer: Seems that motec is the best out there, but he explained you can spend 5k to 20k depending on options...
Tranny: 4L80E I think, hear it's better than the th400? Has overdrive...
There's a sick roll cage in the car, if It's not beating everything on the street without a cage, the driver will look like an idiot hahaha, look at the guy with the roll cage getting his *** kicked, hahaha.
That's why I want to get the turbo sizing right.-
Primary use, vacation car, use a month a year (must whoop up on as many other street cars as possible ). Secondary use. Earn bragging rights with timeslips and dyno sheet.

They're using the HKS GT2835 turbos.

try and contact jeff with induction motorsports. he is one of the biggest precision turbo dealers in the country and basically has the best pricing on turbos around. he is also super informative, and very customer service oriented. not only that hes a good friend of mine and also helped me build my last supra. their website is www.inductionmotorsports.com, that should also have his number on it. tell him kevin sent you and you need the super hookup on some turbos.
BTW, what car is this going in??? Ive been wanting to do the 4L80E in my GS for awhile, but decided to keep it tame enoughright now to use a built supra TT tranny. a guy here in town is making 1000+ whp through his 4L80E, with just a shift kit and hardened input shaft, in a 5000lb truck.
