Well I guess I'll throw a little details up about coming months. Plans for winter was a crazy Twin Charge set-up. Element Tuning Build FA20, Cosworth Supercharger, and GTX4088R.

I have been pretty against swaps into the twins chassis, but been looking at LS engines and watching the Vorshlag thread closely. I am really starting to like the idea of a N/A Twin making turbo power.

So Plans have sort of change. Still weighing the two plans in my head.

LS3 Crate Engine w/ Heads/Cams
Vorshlag T56/Swap kit
MRS Can System
Greddy Evo GT 3" Exhaust

Should come out cheaper as I can sell off current engine/trans/turbo kit/clutch/Ecutek/OFT/injectors/Overpipe/front pipe/short shifter

Those will all be listed for sale in the coming months

There's two reasons that I'm holding off on an LS swap. One, I already have a spare tranny and block that I can have built while still being able to drive my car, then when I'm done, I can keep the engine as a spare or sell it to recoup the expense.

So, no core charge for me. Plus the extra tranny I have would do me no good if I were to go the LS swap route.

I still think I'm going to try going the opposite route on the twin charge though. Big broad compressor map centrifugal S/C feeding into a smaller turbo.

I'm also toying with using a... well, pm me if you want to know. I'm not putting this one out there...

Thought I would throw a small parts list up. Because of the somewhat large budget I had for the twin charge set-up, I have decided to go with a crate engine to help avoid any issues that may come from a used engine.

GMPP Crate LS3 (430Hp version)
LS3 430 Controller kit
Fluidamper Crank Pulley
Canton Racing Front Sump Kit (Baffled Front sump oil pan to help with oiling issues)
Trick Flow Top End kit (Trick Flow CNC ported aftermarket casting heads, Dual valve spring, Ti retainers, stainless valves, 230/238 Cam)
Vorshlag Stg.0 Swap kit (Brackets/mounts, Driveshaft, Long Tube Headers)
Vorshlag Custom T56 Magnum XL
Vorshlag Tilton Master cylinder/Slave cylinder setup
MRS Can Device
ACT Clutch kit w/ Lightweight Flywheel
Assorted Fuel Fittings

Sorry Dustin

Got the word my Axles came in today, and of course it's raining. I may still try to tackle them. I have been driving to and from work on the bad axle as I really had no other choice. Kind of sketchy. Will get pictures and updates later.

DustinS · 10-27-2016, 11:06 AM

Got the Axles installed last night. Went pretty quick. Decently easy. Happy to have the clicking gone.

Threads were a little too long

DustinS · 10-28-2016, 04:40 PM

TSP Built 630HP LS3 ordered. Receiving it with Pontiac Front Sump Pan and improved racing baffle pre-installed.

Just ordered the ACT Clutch and Fuel Fittings as well.

Vorshlag just posted that they do have some FRS Mount kits in stock currently, just seemingly aren't available quite yet. So that will be ordered at any moment.

Its happening! Nice

DustinS · 11-07-2016, 11:08 AM

Initial opinion on the Greddy Evo GT exhaust. It sounds amazing and I am glad it is quite a bit quieter than my old exhaust, but it hangs way too low.

Sound is messed up for some reason. Sucks as well because it cuts out right when the BOV goes off.

Threw in a quick backlight for the boost gauge. Just a switched 4 "AA" holder onto a blue LED. Gauge is going away so I didn't want to go through the trouble off wiring it in just to take it back out.

DustinS · 11-10-2016, 06:01 PM

Got a little goody coming in that I was not expecting. A Speed By Design Carbon Steering Wheel. Got it at an amazing price that I couldn't pass up.

Leather with Black Stitching. Pictures to come as soon as it comes in.
