Let's see: tuned header - check: big turbo - check: big a$$ intercooler - check: cool blow-off valve - check: radical exhaust - check. Hey Chris, you've created a monster, can't wait until this hits the road. Watch out supercars, this little Goblin is out to eat your lunch!

If that spread exhaust isn't carporn I don't know what is...Carporn.

I am expecting in the 450 ballpark based on research into similar e85 builds with an EFR 7163. As much as I wanted power I also really wanted fast spool and a manageable power band. I’m hopeful that between the large but not giant sized ball bearing twin scroll turbo, custom divided exhaust manifold, and all the custom work to keep air routing clean I won’t have much lag. If it does have excessive lag I just wasted a bunch of time and money and shoulda just bought a cheap giant turbo and made even more power.Carporn.

Thanks! I have started it though it needs a tune before I do much more than idle it. I’ll post videos if I ever figure out how to lol.

Does anyone know a tuner in Arkansas or a border state that can tune an Ecotec? I am striking out. Even local Chevy performance shops won’t touch it.
