This was one of the best vids you've put out. Loved seeing the build montage

[@frankensteincamaro]

Maybe but that camera guys voice is annoying.

was cool seeing yall in Ecrew vid. love all these new c8 builds

[@Ls1ftw]

Its cool watching you guys make kits ... Keep up the great work guys

[@RacingByrds]

Wow!!! Probably the Coolest setup I have seen yet!!! I look forward to seeing what you can do with it!!!!

[@svsgroup6066]

Let’s get a race planned

[@TPAK-tb6gr]

Loving the Build so far!

[@Jerm-the_worm]

Badass build ! Great fabrication.

[@gtrzero2157]

Great video!!

[@franklotito4156]

Great video Andrew! you guys made an awsome kit 👍✌

[@utahcountypicazospage5412]

That weld job is legit also the waste gate blowing into the exhaust instead of the air is awesome to keep the heat in the engine bay down just like one turbo cars

[@stevenfelmeten6834]

Make it a peaceful protest. They can do it why can't you. And it's awesome working with Amelia

[@Tedowski]

Those twirly bois sound good. Looks clean.

[@bradbonnell5777]

Good thing you have people that know how to fabricate. Nice work!

[@daviddiaz3910]

Can over from e crew .you guys had me dying 💀 🤣🤣🤣 looking forward to watching more videos

Great car ... that turbo sound 😍

[@BenHayat]

@Andrew; This was one of the best videos; You have excellent top quality guys working there. Although small shop, but awesome R&D; You should market that awesome Meth kit and Cool Chiller as stand alone kits. That Eric kid, is very good! Don't lose him...

[@newtonfirefly3584]

@Complete Street Performance; Certainly nice to see Your consciousness efforts, especially the custom fabricated parts. Nice to see this video showing much of the fab and installation too. Have viewed some videos from a few notable Speed-Performance shop here on YT (mostly) with a few on their website. Am a trained, degreed engineer, who also is an auto/car/performance enthusiast with significant practical knowledge, experience, expertise, combined with mechanical/electrical/electronics design, assembly, installation, repair, troubleshooting. Seem fairly clear, most of the shops have at best experienced mechanics, often within the scope of the engine, autos, they work on and with. They will have some detailed information about common issues and such. A benefit to using an approach more as a designer, especially looking at the entire system as a whole, will maximize performance within the aspects of risk, durability, ease of service, maintenance, reliability. Also, will be beneficial for choosing specific parts, manufacturers, or custom. As a good example, there are several performance enhancement shops who have managed to modify a C8-LT2 with twin turbos including intercooler, modified exhaust, some attempts with partial ECU replacement (intention to achieve full ECU as for other vehicles & engines) As seen with Amelia Hartford's C8-LT2, twin turbo, done by Pietz Performance, it produced so much HP & Torque, the ECU, controlling the DCT slipped intentionally to protect it. In addition, in a very short time of use, the engine internal parts were damaged [connecting rods bent, flywheel issues, etc.] As You know, Texas Speed rebuilt the LT2 with internal parts which are stronger, more capable of higher HP, Torque [forces & stress], thus able to handle the higher performance enhancements. They also added better capability for NO² and methanol. There still remains a complete ECU and limitations of DCT (also interrelated). Stronger axels may also be needed. The vehicle already has coil-over shocks upgrade, tires & wheels too. My main points: If a basic level designer or mechanic would be involved in the overall system design, mechanics, modifications, many issues would be obvious, thus avoiding damage in very short to medium range and long range. A racing vehicle needs less durability than a street vehicle, certainly, thus many modifications can be worth the risk, as long as the vehicle will be durable enough for the particular race, time format and needs. Obviously the 24 hr. Le Mans has quite different format and needs compared with 600/500/200 mile race, Indy, F1, Stock car, Drag, etc. Because of the approach used by every group seen thus far, would only work with a shop that has modification mechanics that either have sufficient knowledge and expertise of proper design, viewing, knowing, analysis, evaluation or willing to allow someone including myself to review the initial designs, implementation with proper mechanical, electrical, technical, and electronics (needed for ECU). It seems clearly obvious, especially from the results if C8-LT2 above, every twin turbo implementation will damage the engine. Some quicker than others. [Ex. if HP & Torque were limited to say HP < LT2 above, still will result in damage internally; whether 1/2/5/10 k miles. A proper mechanical analysis needs to he done, like GM engineers did. Also GM already has a twin turbocharged, OHC/V, 5.5L engine working and produced (& racing), planned for production release in 2022 model C8 [also a HP hybrid electric/combustion]. Clearly that engine is designed and built with stronger parts to handle the forces, stresses and have sufficient durability, reliability, longevity. Back in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s the mechanical aspects were all what is necessary, and certainly easier for basic level mechanics to be involved in modifications and builds. However, the best racing teams had engineer(s) involved. As the engines, transmissions, vehicles became more developed technologically, so to the need for expertise increases. Additionally, with supercharged, turbocharged, fuel injection, EC, more sophisticated transmission, suspension, aerodynamic, fuels [methane (most race vehicles) & NO²], etc., more system analysis, evaluation, implementation and design are needed. If someone with proper engineering were involved, the results will he significant, extensive, greater and potentially dramatic. Imagine how much business one shop who has properly designed modifications will benefit from the results their customers receive, especially in durability, reliability with performance? Maybe, one shop will influence another, then another to compete? Sincerely

[@Salvadorz24]

Not the first tt c8, but definitively the nicest kit

[@beastscinema3964]

Great set up where are the blow off valves located and that type of setup

[@MyrtleBchsweeper]

The turbo kit looks and will as it appears perform well. Great job.....

[@ninaallen7849]

I think Emelia is a step ahead of ya seeing how she already has rods and pistons she is going to be able to run way more boost I bet she will be close to 900hp pretty easily and we all know factory engine isn't going to make that atleast not more than once probably lol

[@nighthawk0077]

The engine is not the bottleneck. It’s the ecu and transmission

[@Corey-pd3mi]

Except the flywheel is fkd

[@zethloveless7238]

Engage RC the engine is also a bottleneck the rods aren’t crazy strong for big power.

[@paulcondie2520]

Artwork

[@RobertMagaro]

OK now that Turbo setup is the correct way for emissions now which one makes the most power is to be seen... Two thumbs up...

[@vincentrocco7301]

Great job guys Hey Emelia , objects look smaller in my rear view MIRROR !!!!LOL Peace Vince

[@Jesusprayerwarriorbw]

Andrew, brother, absolutely love that polished Aluminum Intake & intercooler! Those welds are dreamy🥰😍😜. I'm excited for your completion and cant wait to order my C8. I've gotta wait tho. I'm coming out of retirement (medical 100% VA disability) to get a 3LZ C8 Z06 w/Z07 package in Elkhart Lake blue with Tension blue Interior. I heard from a insider that the Z06 may be a limited number run to keep the values up. Hope not, but if so then I'll be forced to TT the C8 Stingray. How close are you from getting a standalone controller for the CPU/EMU or a company that you work with to hack it for modding? Your skills are beyond amazing and how you tuned the shop managers C8 is very impressive! Are you going to be adding the stronger axels like Emilia and Cleetus have done(sorry if u did this & I missed it, my pain pills cause me short term memory issues)? I m sure ur aware of LMR & their TT C8 kit they did for Streetspeed717. His clutches were slipping but they said they have clutches & a standalone (EMU?) Or a turbo controller bypass coming in shortly from a 3rd party. God bless you & your family Andrew. Talk soon

[@PhillyDee215]

Nice 👌

[@CamWrld]

Dont forget streetspeed717 he got a tt c8

[@freedomfox8183]

Yeah and his seems like the most well put together with the best daily drivability after seeing TDIB'S review of it and what Mike's said ..plus I just like how clean it still looks in the engine bay and can't wait for tuning to be available and the aftermarket clutches for trans to hold more power this is an awesome platform to see progress on Everytime I see a new video..

[@CamWrld]

@@freedomfox8183 i like his more overall

[@panagiotisf7228]

Isnt that the fabricator dude goertez?

[@garymathews4042]

could you draw oil from the oil sump tank and feed the turbos with a fuel pump ?

[@848evo4]

never got a spanner wrench with the hundreds of turbo smart wastegates we used. guess we got cheap ones

[@MyrtleBchsweeper]

How about the 69 Camaro on the lift is some of the shots ?

[@ninaallen7849]

This is probably a crazy question but have y'all considered a big front mount turbo or twins kinda like they do rear mounts on a Camaro or Corvette but just do front mount since engine in back just think it would look bad ass with big single or twins hanging out the front bumper

[@zethloveless7238]

Tons of lag and weight etc.

[@mericafreedomland3583]

And streetspeeds tt c8 he had it early af

[@mje19D]

Can't wait till someone unlocks the tuning and you can get this thing dialed in. LT2 just like the LT1 is pretty weak and as you probably know, will self destruct at around 750HP. At least this intake won't explode and shoot flames at the wall.....

[@completestreetperformance]

Lol

[@shaynepatrickhayes1091]

Great video, I've been a fan for a long time. not to nag just some constructive criticism. Your audio needs to be compressed really bad in your vids. It's either extremely loud or extremely quiet. Keep the vids coming

[@772tsweet77]

This!

[@mlneversatisfied]

Nicest looking c8 turbo kit out there by far. Do you plan on making kits to sell?

[@completestreetperformance]

Yep

[@patciarcia6463]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@LarryDavidshow]

I don't know guys it's still just another stingray I've never been just a regular Corvette guy it's either all or nothing for me I think its better to wait for the zo6 to make its way in and go from there stingrays just do not look like a stout heavy hitter

[@dannycarwile1330]

How are you tuning this thing? I didn't think there was any way to tune them yet.

[@completestreetperformance]

We have a few tricks. One thing we are very happy about is the car now uses widebands which will correct things even at full throttle!

[@automac1361]

How’s Mikes mustang coming along

[@ZeroFoxGarage]

It’s getting there! Engine/trans/driveshaft are in. After work tomorrow I’ll likely mount the new turbo. Hopefully by Sunday I have a first start!

[@cqa9]

For a second there I thought this was a i seafoamed my car video

[@completestreetperformance]

I was in the car so I didn't get to see that lol

[@RobertKohut]

Nice!! Sad.... :-)

[@4BillC]

Just be careful not to blow it up like she did! PA rules!

[@god1st.530]

Boy they really petty bout the hole . Lmr thing Fyi they did a hell of a job. On street speed 717 car. An had common sense not to push the trans an bad tuning to make that Lt mess up. Even if yall want to throw shade an not give credited were it's due to me is childish. They been leading the way for a long time. Like it or not. Shes a threat but not nearly as much as Lmr. Omg the shadeeee Gm FTW

[@lmadden6236]

This will definitely take down the "Freedom Rocket"... I think that was homeboys intention..

[@NEKBR8KR]

Not even a competition at this point with her having her rods and pistons changed out...plus she is two far away. Pick on your coworker or the other PA twin turbo guy that you do not want to mention.

[@pickles23401]

run what ya brung was canceled..... ;(

[@Harry-bn6oj]

How bout you guys stop working on your own cars so I can finally get my car in for upgrades :)

[@itshiho]

Her car blew up already.

[@ninaallen7849]

Yep but she already has a built engine put together by Texas speed so her car will be way faster than this if they can get trans to hold

[@itshiho]

@@ninaallen7849 yeah I knew she was getting a new motor.

[@Jn58298]

Y'all better watch that nose of hers.

[@frankensteincamaro]

85 % great video. 15 % out of focus and annoying camera guys voice.

[@alagy]

not actually a twin turbo C8 start up!!!

[@lDDD587]

Mehhh

[@darthmaul7428]

I still do not understand why you would do this with no tuning available. I feel bad for the car.

[@king-o-vetts9899]

Actually, the biggest change needed is adding more fuel. The new wide band O2 sensors handle this pretty well where the older systems couldn’t. Timing retard has always been pretty good up to a point and a little sanity seems to go a long way in these projects.

[@completestreetperformance]

Indeed.

[@shortvidz9576]

Those welds are ugly not the ugliest though but they're ugly 😂😂🤣🤣

[@naastyws6718]

fuck twin turbos i wanna hear a loud and choppy C8

[@LsXUnderground]

Peep the CSP IG tomorrow for an exhaust clip of Eric’s Low mount turbo setup

[@realitykicksin8755]

I find it hilarious what you Yanks call R&D. You pressure stuff up and see if it blows. No homework, No engineering, No investigation and no calculations.

[@king-o-vetts9899]

Let me guess, you’re a Brit. You ignore years of experience doing this with other cars. R&D? Trial and error? Are you applying the experience of Emilia to these guys? By the way, what have you done lately?
