With over 20 sets of the new billet turbochargers sold in the past 6 months, not one customer has sent me any pictures, videos, time slips, or dyno graphs! I do remember calling RPM Transmission and hearing Todd tell me what his car ran but never got any pictures or videos of it.

Phil Hoefler, Todd’s tuner, sent me a few emails this morning; one had a link to a youtube video, another with some pictures of the car and finally a timeslip. I guess Hoefler wanted Todd to be famous or he just got bored with looking at my last post in November. Either way, great find Phil nice job sending this car into the 9s and Congratulations to Todd and the RPM Transmission crew! Lets take a look (if you haven’t seen it already!)

Even though pictures were the past, I have a few photos to share with you as well:

If your over in Las Vegas, NV and you love Corvettes or LSx aftermarket performance, you might want to stop by Leading Edge Performance and talk to Garth Weaver. Weaver is the shop owner and manager of LEP and has some of the cleanest late model GM performance vehicles out in Sin City and besides being clean, their fast too! Check out this video George stumbled across:

I hope you all have a good Thanksgiving. We should be around the shop Friday playing catch up if my memory serves me right.
Take care,

There really isn’t any way of buttering up this one! NHRA Division 6 driver, Curt Geise, runs an all time best of 6.693 at 209.98mph in his Pontiac GTO. Not only was that the fastest pass for Geise but its also believed to be the fastest Pontiac door car.

Whats in that thing? I’ll set you straight right now; its not a big block Chevrolet motor. Geise has made very clear that this is a true Pontiac 525″. Refer to his combination as a “Chevy” motor and well I’ll let you discuss that with him . Now besides the “Pontiac” motor, twin Precision Turbochargers are used and propelled down the track by the simplest transmission known to man, a powerglide. That will wrap up Geise’s season but what does he have in store for next season? He turned up the boost at his last divisional race, I wonder where the boost will be at next year?
Geise would like to thank his wife Bonnie, George Scott of Turbo Technology, Job Spetter JR of Turbo People of New York and probably his best friend, his dog.

Sure, racing is over for the season but that doesn’t mean you can’t start preparing for next year (I’m one to talk, ha). Russell Stevenson over at Freeway Trailers has this beautiful race ready trailer for sale. It comes fully loaded with a generator, air compressor, air conditioner, multiple tie down d-rings and e-track, rubber flooring plus much more.

Get a hold of Russell today at 253-922-0771. If he’s not in the office, give us a call and I’ll track him down for you!

A few weeks ago, Turbonetics, Inc. CEO, Brad Lewis decided to pay a visit. George tells me its been quite a few years since Brad was here last but it was a great opportunity to actually meet the voice on the other side of the phone if you know what I mean :).

While Lewis was here, George showed him the manufacturing process of the Corvette Twin Turbo Systems. When they got to the manifold portion of the kit, Lewis saw something he had to have. He was curious if the manifolds would mount upside down and work as a top mount setup. “Absolutely!” George replied…. Well, he wasn’t joking either… Check these pictures out exclusively from Turbonetics, Inc.

Jeff Wagner had a chance to go out to the track this weekend and brought back some footage with him… Check it out!

Its been some time since I’ve said anything and everyone that calls never lets me hear the end of it, “Nick why isn’t there something else to look at on the home page besides that boat?” Whats wrong with looking at the boat? George had endless hours on the local lake tuning that beast with the help of Job Spetter JR of Turbo People of New York so whats it going to hurt to look at it for a few more weeks? By the way, on a bad day, the fastest that boat got up to was almost 140MPH. With summer coming to an end and the lake being less crowded, I’ll have yet another sweet video of that thing in action hopefully going well over 140+!

Now, the title of this blog, post, bulletin, news flash- whatever you want to call it, is regarding the C6Z06 we finished up last spring. The owner called us and asked if we’d kindly mention that its for sale. I told him if he got me updated pictures of it (with the new rims; man those are sweet) I’d be more than happy to do so. IF YOUR INTERESTED IN THIS Z06 PLEASE email me and I’ll be happy to answer any questions you may have. Lets have a look at this car one last time….
