2x Up-Pipes (from the factory manifolds to the turbos),
2x Down-Pipes (that then Y into 1x 3.5")
This is kind of the impression we were under designing this kit. We were careful to keep ground clearance, and still tuck everything. I never realized so many of you actually jump these...
The pipes still have spacing from the pan. The radiant heat from the pipes isn't enough to do anything to the oil. Even in extreme racing, I'd assume there would be speed involved which = airflow. We've tucked pipes similar to this on our C5/C6 kits inside plastic fenders....never an issue...
I would love to, but unfortunately there just isn't enough room above the cross member to get all that piping in there. We looked at quite a few different options when we were designing the kit, and it was a tight fit even where it is now. Most of the piping tucks up above where factory skid...
Good lord you guys are hard on these things. How do you not blow the airbags?
I've seen the video of the 40' jump, which completely destroyed the truck, but I figured that was a rare occurrence.
So would a reinforced skid shield be called for?
Hey guys, I'd like to introduce myself. I'm CK with Underpressure Power & Performance (UPP) located here in Colorado Springs. We've been in the performance business for a little over 10yrs now, and developing turbo kits for the last 5. Up until this point we've done alot of GM LS engines...
Thank you all for the warm welcomes!
Skid Plate.....You mean this skid plate?
The kit is designed to use the factory skid plate, but from what I understand TMT's plate bolts in the factory location, and therefore would be able to work with this kit as well. Buy yes, I suppose if you...
No belt slippage problems.
No additional side thrust load on the crank from over tightened belt tensioners.
No drop in fuel economy from parasitic loss of spinning the SC.
More power than an SC, again no parasitic loss. That being said it is not necessarily "more dangerous" because it makes...
