This is why I am selling my Twincharged Redline

I need to make payments for this beast!

as well as my SRT4 and the wife's car.
The RL runs great and is even quicker. There are no issues with it what so ever that is causing me to sell it. I wish I could keep it. It is so much fun to drive. Anyhow you can find it here now.

I'd like to buy the twincharged one but I already have mine...I just really really wish you guys would have sold a kit for this car...doesn't matter about the tune, just the basic stuff for it. I would put a side mount intercooler on it since my LFP HE takes up the front end...

Actually I got this from a place in Virginia Beach. This is MUCH better than the one at Weed and much better priced. They also gave me a good trade in on my truck. Sorry.

So no chance of a kit being put together of the manifold, turbo, oil lines, etc?

It is not that hard to make this setup. The manifold was one that GM was going to use on a turbo cavy but they decided not to go that route. The guy who produced them is now stuck with them. They are still somewhat expensive. The turbo is a GT3076R/wg that you can get with the wastegate from ATP turbo. The down pipe was a J tube from a Silvia. There are TONS of these on ebay. Just go up there and look around and see what will fit. The oil feed line can be made up at any hydrolic store. The piping canbe done if you know how or a muffler shop at worst can make it up. Just go from the turbo to the MAF sensor (be sure to flare the pipe up to the MAF diameter as soon as possible. I made a bracket that connects the pipe to the tranny as well. This prevents it from blowing off. I used an axillary rail to feed fuel to the engine only under boost, but I suppose you could just tune in larger factory injectors. Also I used a 3.8" pulley to reduce the supercharger boost. You will need to make the means to fit an idler pulley that will allow this large of a SC pulley. Now for tuning I used the SMT6d to run the extra injectors and stage the 2 boost settings according to the throttle position. More or less the 3/4 TPS will kick the boost controller into high boost. There was some other tuning that I was doing with the SMT6 as well but this could be compensated with a good HP tuners tune. The good thing about my setup is that the majority of it is cast iron so there is very little chance of cracks or leaks. The car runs very strong. It put down 335whp last time it was on the dyno. Since then I added more than 14* of timing so now I see about 18* and I run better air fuel ratios. The car is even stronger now. There is more power in there too. The car pulls right to redline and never falls off. Upgrade the valvetrain and run more RPM, get more HP!!

Thanks for all the information man. So did you have 42.5lb injectors when you reached 335whp?

Do you mean 42+stockers? There is no way y ou can reach 335whp+ on the 42's. He has 8 injectors total iirc. A second set that kicked in under high boost.

I do have 8 fuel injectors. I have the factory injectors as well as four 60lb/hr injectors. I have PLENTY of injectors. We used this same setup on the Turbo Solstice we built as well. It works great and makes tuning simple.
