Anyone in the northwest interested in twin turbos w/in

go to www.musclecartechnologies.com and check out the "New Products" section. The twin turbo LT1 kit is there. I talked to Arron (co owner) on the email about test fitting the headers on a thirdgen. He thinks that they wont clear without an aftermarket k-member but he said that he is looking for a thirdgen in the area to test fit a pair on there.

Anyone interested in that area, can you email and offer your car up for test fitting? This could be a potentially good thing for thirdgen owners if they work.

I just talked to the guys. Said that they should have an answer for the thirdgen question by the end of the month. Said the the company that makes the headers for them is based out of Kentucky. Cost for headers alone is close to $2000.00.

Told them I have a pair of PT51's and they were suggesting 1.5" Primarys for them... this is for turbos that support over 500 hp each. Don't know if I would trust these guys.

I was going to talk to them in a few months, after my car is running and painted about buying a set but being able to return them if they do not fit since im so far away, i'd be fitting my car with a PA K member first or have it waiting at the same time to find out whats possible, if someone doesnt get over there with or without a tubular K and they'll do it later i'll still be willing to test.

I'm in the Northwest, but I don't think my 3.1 would be of any use.
