I have the Hellion system and it's wonderful. Great sound with my noweeds diverters directly behind the turbos lol. Trying to sell my car (hesitantly), but would definitely do it again.

I am not certain if you have seen our system, but I will throw our hat into the mix.

Out IPS twin turbo system is the highest quality kit on the market, ask the users whom have it installed, it also produces the highest HP numbers consistently, it can be installed in a modest amount of time with a modest array of hand tools!

A full list of the kit can be seen here http://www.ipsmotorsports.net/produc...oducts_id=4309

Here are some shots of the kit installed on a car











This auto car recently went out on stock tires and babying the car off the line to a mid 11 second pass at 124 mph!

Some more shots of kits getting ready to ship



Complete system



If you have any additional questions please let me know, we are very proud of this system, and we have a lot of time in developing it, which is reflected in the HP it produces and the quality of parts we use!

Finally just a little fun video from our IRS record setting corvette Z06 (with the iron block motor still) Car went 7.75 at 183 Milan last weekend, and we have a new ERL motor going in the car in the next few weeks!



Regards

If your car had a "e-bay" intercooler it wasnt put on here. We fabricate the intercooler here in house for that kit. It is a high quality bar and plate intercooler capable of 1100 hp. We had the same intercooler that comes with our kit on a camaro with 22 psi of boost making over 1000 hp with less than 1 psi of drop across the core. As for the downpipe, depending on L99 or LS3 the down pipes are different size. If you bought the car second hand and it had a cheap intercooler on it i wouldnt be surprised if the down pipe wasnt a part from our kit either. Our kit is 100% fabricated in house and we use the best available stainless steel and aluminum. The only parts bought for the kit that we do not make are obviously the 44mm Tial blow off valve,Tial waste gate, Borg Warner turbo and the intercooler core. Our kit is made in the USA and we stand behind our product 100%

I have the fastlane stage 4 kit and I freaking love it....I don't have any issues with under hood temp at all.....the blanket does a great job of keeping the heat contained to the exhaust where it should be.

The part that amazes me is the whole kit is built in house...the piping, the intercooler...all of it is custom built to fit your car...I have not had any issues with my kit what so ever. We litterally pulled it off of the Dyno at 7pm the night before Camaro 5 fest, I went home packed and drove it 1200 miles to the fest...raced it several times and drove it home.....The car is amazing.....Just ask Robert.....He'll tell you...and he still ows me a signature!!!!!

What is that pan looking thing hanging under the car? Is that to catch the pistons and rods when you sling em out the block? Hehehe....looks like you won't be going over any speed bumps with that. And side/bottom pics?

It is a skid plate to protect the low mounted turbos i believe.

Exactly, my kit from TTI Granatelli also has it... No clearance issues... It's more flush than that picture shows...

As cole mentioned it is a scratch sheild to help aide any debris or parking curbs There is no ground clearance issues unless you are 1" off the ground, I can guarantee this, they hang approximatively .75 - 1" below the subframe rail but not lower then the exhaust, so its a wash. Not sure if we have side pictures.

I can promise you - a set of Granatelli turbos will NEVER look like that under 99.9% of your driving conditions. Sure if you plan to tow 12,000 lbs up Pikes Peak for 20 miles it may get there but otherwise no.

IPS, GRANATELLI and HELLION locates the turbos in the right spot, period.
Oh, i think HENNESSEY has low mount kit too.

Jon @ Atlanta Performance and Fabrication can build you a custom single or twin turbo kit as well. They are sponsors on here and have been doing custom turbo kits for many years with some of the highest hp cars here in Georgia!
