I still have your email.....Still waiting to pull the trigger

Any pics or dyno numbers of the build?

Sent a PM, avos, but forgot to ask for dynos. So... pricing, your location, and before and after dynos would be much appreciated. Thanks!

If a "lil more" is an understatment, the the TS is the way to go, however you need to think of couple of grant. Just pm me when you are (truly) interested to go this road.

And what's the deal with your limited slip diff? Though with the kind of bump in HP & torque from a twin screw I'm sure the slip is going to be terribly limited ...

Hi Avos
Long time no speak
I have sorted my performance issues After a lot of investigating it was the cats

so fitted hi flow cross over mid section and high flow tail pipes while at it. Ready now for a serious chat about a TS conversion

Would you be able to help with the conversion I know we are talking serious money but looks like the result is serious HP!!!

Hi Stypernut,

Good to hear all is sorted now.

But sorry to say maybe, besides the serious hp, there is another side effect and thats serious torque

. If you can live with the latter, than the TS might be something fo you. Please PM me, also where are you located in the UK, do you see any change to visit belgium in the near future?

This alone will add Hp.At the begining I ran a 6 rib belt on the vett. belt was slipping Dyno 377 Hp and 417Hp 8 rib belt.Ifyou have 6 ribs now and you go to 8 ribs all pullys + crank, you will think its a new car.Blowworks in N.J. cured the problem with their 8 rib belt pulleys. Hp gain 40 with out doing any thing else. Added Blowerworks water/alki injection system 20Hp gain. This system really works believe me. Greg is one of the top supercharger men in the country and a friend of mine also. My vett. was used as the proto-type for an 8 rib belt setup for the C4 vett. If you spend your money wisely you will get a return for your moneyspent. I know there are many of you guys that want to do upgrages to your STRs. If you want I can talk to Greg about it. Just let me know.
Regards Gene

I am interested in knowing more about this. Can you get me Greg's information or put him in touch with me?

How time flies, but there are already 2 cars running around, so mechanically all is done and fitted. Am just testing with bigger injectors, and would like to do one more install before I can release it as a kit.
