I bought the car back in April this year off of eBay (scary I know) and have just been cruising around enjoying it. The plan was to go twin turbo from the start so I have slowly been gathering everything I needed. Well as of this past weekend I officially have everything and began the work today. I looked into the hellion kit and trust me, its a great kit but I felt for the price its just not worth it. I could build a very similar kit for literally half the cost if not even less, especially since I know what I'm doing. The only thing I'm slightly concerned about is tuning because I had no idea how much you could tune on this car up until about a week ago. I do have access to a dyno and some great EFI knowledge so I'm sure i'll be able to figure it out. With that being said lets get into this.
The car is a 2015 GT Auto in Magnetic Metallic. I actually took it to the track already and managed a best of 13.3 @ 110. I was happy with it considering it spins terrible with this wheel setup its really not meant for racing, lol.
As of right now the only mods are lowered on Tein springs and a Mach V thunder exhaust. As far as the fuel system I went with a DW 415 lph fuel pump and DW #78 injectors. Surprisingly to me once I entered all the injector data into HP tuners the car ran flawless, literally no change from stock. I expected the fuel map to be way off but its almost spot on with very little modifications. My goal as of right just is just about 8 psi hoping to make close to 650 HP. Maybe next year I will go bigger and for more power not really sure but this is my first goal.
As far as the turbo system I am running Dual Precision 40mm waste gates, Dual precision 6266 Turbos and a 50MM precision BOV, I will be running duel 2.5 in aluminium tubing to the intercooler then 3 inch into the throttle body. I'm going to have everything powder coated black once I get it welded up because I am a big fan of the sleeper look.
So far I haven't got much done but was able to squeeze in a little work today. I pulled both manifolds off the car for mock up. I am using a stock 11-14 GT driver side manifold and the stock 15 driver size manifold. I decided to cut off the flanges and weld a V-Band for multiple reasons. One they are way easier to work with than a 2 bolt flange and there is no fear of losing a gasket. From there I have an adapter which is where my turbos will hang from (all pictured below)
That's as far as I have gotten so far hopefully tomorrow I will have these all welded up and the turbos mounted. The goal is to have this thing running by Monday of next week but that can all change depending on how much free time I actually have. I will try to keep you guys updated as I go, stay tuned!
Also follow me on ig for more up to date pics and videos etc @imrex613 (shameless plug, lol)
