Description
Up until this point we have directed a lot of our attention to the Mustang market and all along seen the potential of the LSX platform. We have also designed two turbo systems for the 1998-2002 LS1 F-Body, check our site for those kits as well. After getting the 2010 Camaro delivered to our shop, it didn't take long to layout and design the newest and first GM application that we will be offering. This kit is set to be released by the end of May 2012. As for our kit design, we started by building a hot-side that would merge together on the driver-side and hold one of our 78/75 On 3 Performance turbocharger. Directing the gas out of the turbo is a single 3" downpipe built to merge into the factory exhaust just behind the transmission. All of the exhaust connections are v-banded and we supply 1 lap-band to attach the downpipe to the factory exhaust. That way its all a simple bolt on without welding that anyone semi-mechanically inclined will have no problem installing. Moving on to the cold side of the kit, we have built a 3" charge pipe that feeds the intercooler and coming out of the intercooler to the throttle body transitions into 3.5". Each kit comes with our crossflow 3" On 3 Performance bar and plate intercooler. We also have a 4" core that is available as well and listed under our optional items if you plan on maxing out your short block or if you have a built motor going for higher boost levels. Our 5 ply On 3 Performance silicone couplers connect each intercooler pipe together and t-bolt clamps ensure maximum clamping force and prevent any intercooler pipes from blowing. Each pipe is bead rolled on both ends to add extra protection from losing a pipe under boost. On to mounting your intercooler, we supply you CNC laser cut and formed mounting brackets to hold the intercooler in place This is a bolt on system which is going to allow for a straight forward install. We include an instruction package with the kit that will detail the install and have photos to help those visually see how it goes together.
Need Help Choosing The Proper Turbo?
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION QUESTIONS: On a daily basis we are asked about the kit fitting automatic cars or why does it only fit manual cars. We designed this car on a 6sp car and the crossover from the pass. side manifold to the turbo manifold crosses under the transmissions. We could not calculate for the automatic transmission pan when designing the kit. This is not to say it will not work but if you HAVE and automatic transmission car, you would need to modify the crossover at least to make it clear and go under the transmission. This is not a service we can provide, this is completely up to the end user
