Everyone post pics of your power adder.

Well, like the topic said... Let's see everyone's power adders. I don't think this thread has been around lately, and think it could be an interesting one. So, who's got turbo's...Nitrous...superchargers, let's see them!

If I post mine it looks just like JucinGTA only blue and has been that way for over 2 years. (lived with parents when I bought. Parents kick me out and suddenly no funds.)

<--- Still living at home but just finished school.

This is actually the last round of big modifications I plan to the car for a loooooooooong time. I may have the heads ported over the winter but its not a big job compared to say, BUILDING A SET OF HEADERS and putting a turbo on.

92superram,unfortunatly 850 is not the HP - I own TTA#850 along with #124 and #884.

The motor is pretty simple,stock 109 buick GN block bored .020 over.JE pistons,stock crank and rods.Billet steel main caps(4)and a main girdle.Ported TTA heads and ported stock intake.214/210 billet roller cam w/1.65 TTA style rockers.65mm throttle body and precision plenum.TE64-1 turbo(good to about 715hp)and CAS V2 front mount air to air intercooler.55# seimans injectors and DFI are going in it eventually,but for now scince it's a new motor and I don't want to mess it up I've got 36# blue tops in it with the stock computer and aftermarket chip.Trans is a turbo 400 with reverse manual valve body and brake with a 3200 stall PI Vigilante converter.Hopefully by the time I get the dfi in I'll have my 12 bolt but till then it's got the stock rear.It should make 600-650hp on racegas which should put me in the 9.90's and thats all I want to go cause my car is only legal to 10.0

I have a bunch of pics and info on my site if your interested - www.tta850.com - just click on the red car

switching out the 350 for a 9.2:1 412, wanted TFS heads but looks like it might be Track-1's now, puting all the stuff that was going to go into the B4C-1LE into this car so I dont have to butcher my "one of 589 made, car" going real small on the cam, the 8 rib 9# pullies are coming off and the 12 rib max boost pullies from ATI are going on (about 14-16 psi on my 412 with this P1sc and at our 6000 ft altitude)

the stuff that was going onto the other car (the B4C) includes the whole currie rear, k-member and suspension and now I gotta get a cage is going onto the white Z. but maybe I'll put the super ram on the B4C and use this new RAM system on the white Z28.
