Had a collage made of the Twin Turbo car...

There is a local carshow on Thursdays that I sometimes get down to, and there is a guy there who makes these picture collages on large prints up to 36" square or so. He had a bunch of them on display and I thought it was awesome so I had one done on my car.

It turned out great! He took the pics and then photoshopped it or some other editor and made this on 20" x 24" print. I'll frame it when I get a chance.

Re: Had a collage made of the Twin Turbo car...

Thanks guys Sadly noone wants to play I dont blame them

Its a 401 Twin 70mm turbo sbc based on a dart shp block. somewhere north of 800hp I guess. Full suspension mods, TH400 trans, 4000 stall, dual 3" exhaust, 8pt roll bar, blacked out interior with Corbeau Forza seats in red cloth, C5 Corvette brakes, C6 19x10 rear wheels 18x8.5's front, etc. Lots of mods, not much is stock anymore. See my build thread in my sig for more information on the motor build but the picture turned out great! Its a huge print and will look awesome as a display piece. I would like to have another one made.

You should have seen the other ones this guy did. Very nice job.

Re: Had a collage made of the Twin Turbo car...

Looks great man, It would look great on a placard for car shows showing mods ect under. While it does look real good, I hope you didn't spend to much money, it looks like a basic but nice photoshop job printed with a large format printer.

Re: Had a collage made of the Twin Turbo car...

It was reasonably priced I guess...probably abit too much but I really wanted one and do not have photoshop to pull it off myself. I already have enough into this car, so alittle more doesnt hurt I suppose...its not like its done being modded. It never ends with this car

Re: Had a collage made of the Twin Turbo car...

rear is a 295/30/19 that came off a Porsche 911 turbo Only 100 miles on the tire if that, so I got them for like 275 a piece when they are 330's new. Bridgestone Potenza's. Very nice tire, pretty sticky for what it is.

Fronts are same type, but 255/40/18's. I wish I would have better matched my sidewall heights...front has a big sidewall compared to rear. I am also considering deep dish C5 vette wheels on 18's and going drag radials

Re: Had a collage made of the Twin Turbo car...

Orr89RocZ(Orr is my last name by the way), your car is sick!! Awesome!!! Very few cars would mess with you. You'd show them whos ride rules the streets lol theres a guy named Jeff Strong on Facebook who does collages and business cards for musclecar owners. I'm not sure if you used him or not, but the one you have is awesome and like Anthony said you should frame it.

Yeah I still have the GTO skinnies, but those are for race day only I am considering getting rid of them and going to 18" C6 wheels with drag radials to keep it in street trim all the time and run it like that

Awesome collage! Have you considered getting a Jongbloed hood to help hide those turbos so that "they" would want to play?

Re: Had a collage made of the Twin Turbo car...

The hood is just there for now until I figure out what I want to do with this setup. Jongbloed probably wont clear either as I dont think its tall enough but it could be close...i just never was a fan of that hood.

Depending on how this year goes, i may redo the turbo setup and move things around abit to keep a lower profile hood or same one, just repatch the cutouts and finally get it painted. I just dont know when I'll have the time. Someday I definately want to move turbos down under the hood more...I have some room just need to get creative with the exhaust routing and change my accessories around.

Then again I kinda wanna go back to a n/a motor with spray. Try to get high 9's on motor and low 9's on the shot.... decisions decisions

That's funny because I was thinking of ditching my NOS for a turbo setup lol The problem is that my 383 compression is 11.5:1 n/a so running a turbo is a no go.
