SBC Twin turbo kit
I am selling a twin turbo kit for a small block chevy for 1982-1992 camaros and firebirds. Everything is brand new and never used. The turbos and headers were only test fit one time. It is a complete kit with intercooler and 2 t3/t4 hybrid ball bearing turbos. I am only selling because i ran out of money for my project car and need money for other parts to get her running. I paid $3500 for them but am willing to consider any reasonable offers. If you are interested contact me and i can get you pictures and a complete parts list.

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
Your kit looks identical to the cheaper ebay kit. Some parts might be better, but 2500 better? Does it come with a fuel management system or any tuning aids?

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
whether or not a turbo is worth it for you is really your decision, if your engine is completely stock, no its not worth it, you need new heads, lifters, camshaft, ect ect otherwise you will just blow out your engine...

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
I can be worth it even in stock trim. I put 8000 of the hardest street miles on my twin turbo iroc-z I built myself. I had a bone stock L98 with a holley stealth ram. The car trapped 124 mph in the 1/4 with a t56 and 3:08 gears. I was running a FAST ecm. I pulled the motor and it was perfect. The motor also had 70k on it before I boosted the crap out of it with 12 psi on pump fuel for a full year. Its all in the tune take the word of people who have done it. Then I put a 355 in it with good heads trw pistons and stock crank/rods and drove it for a full year with no mercy, it went 130mph with less boost 8 psi. That engine is fine although I was realy conservative because I didn't want to put a stock rod through my afr heads. With that said your motor will be on borrowed time if your tune sucks. I just made sure mine was always rich.

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
it also doesnt look like it comes with any connections for the TBI/TPi ........
although you would obviously need to add more ****.
i think on ebay it also stated it doesnt cme with oil returns or a fitting for the oil pan.
but the kit i looked at was the 888.99 one.

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
New guy here. I have had my eyes on the 888.99 kit also. The add clearly
states that it is not a complete kit. As far as I can see there is no where `
near the pluming needed to complete it. But its a good start if the parts are worth s***.

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
are you sure b/c those headers look like they go right where my a/c compressor and alternator go ..
i was wondering if we could put a single turbo where our catalytic converter is .. then run a pipe to a intercooler then up to the throttle body ..
anyone got any pics

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
i saw another kit on therei dont remember which one but the headers looked different, and had the blow off valve pipes welded to them and they came out farther from the motor than the other style. im wondering if these would clear all the factory accesories... but if you have ac, i dont know about it clearing the heater box.........

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
Has anyone installed this kit? If so...pictures? I was also considering purchasing this kit but am to worried about the headers clearing anything. I have tryed to get better pictures but they are all kinda the same. I have have a gutted engine compartment but still dont believe this kit will fit. I messaged the seller a week ago about a direct fit with no body or engine mods but he didnt answer.....Kinda fishy. Any help from anyone would be appreciated.

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
Heres another site selling the kit but they do not have the chrome piping. This page also talks about some of the expected horsepower gains.

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
3500 for an 800 dollar kit? And for that last one, you have to be skeptical when they can't even spell correctly or use proper sentence structure.

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
you really think someone would buy a "twin turbo" kit for $3500 when we can get it on ebay for $1000
and all you can do is put up pictures of OTHER kits ..
if you ask me it looks like someone is trying to get $3500 in there paypal account ..

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
yeah that and the fact that it really doesn't look like the kit would actually fit a car with out serrious modification. While the headers/turbo stands seem to be OK quality based on how long they appear to be in the pictures they would put the turbos right next to the AC compesor and alternator. Then there is the fun of running charge pipe and getting filtered air to the turbines. I've seen twin turbo 3rd gens before and both times there were holes cut in the hood for the airfilters and the tops of the turbine. Looks sick but probably not everybodies idea of fun. Also that is a tiny intercooler for the power levels being claimed. I'm thinking about buying one of the ebay kits as a starting point and modifying the parts as necessary to make a TT sleeper out of my 88 but this seller is asking too much for what he has and hasn't responded to peoples PMs so I wonder.

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
ill tell you right now the kit you got wont fit ive been down that road and the exhaust outlet of the turbo is gonna end up right at your frame. its best if you het the headders that put the turbos on top of the valve covers if you can get a downpipe for the drivers side and i had to remove my brake booster also. my personal opinion is its a lot less hassle to just go single, but thats just my .2 cents worth.

Re: SBC Twin turbo kit
EVERYONE WHO IS ASKING IF IT FITS. SEARCH THIS SITE FOR TWIN TURBO HEADERS.
SSAUTOCHROME you will find TONS of info and pictures.
Ive personally bought all three setups and test fitted the headers on mockup motors in a car.
SOME PEOPLE HAVE PROBLEMS with the twin turbo headers hitting the steering shaft some dont. (I didn't. was close YES. hit no)
Just like my SLP headers. they dont hit. Some people have to dent a tube.
that being said. hers a head start on your searching...
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/powe...pics-ebay.html
that eing said. I have a set of the TT headers still. and would like ot get rid of em.
