ok, here are some pics I took of Glenn's turboed CL, BTW, I drove this thing around the track twice since I missed the exit once, and this thing has speed that creaps up on you, granted it wasn't fully tuned and running at 6psi only, you could feel the power brimming through the pedal an steering wheel.

Thanks for posting the pics Ron. I never even got to shoot any pics of it this past weekend.
Yeah, the Ron Jon parts are the best. The kit looks awesome (perfect fit the first time) and the Devotion's are the best looking wheels around for the CL's. Keep up the good work Ron, we look forward to building more cars with you in the future.
The turbo kits will come with turbo, intercooler, wastegate, blow off, headers, crossover pipes, intercooler pipes, FMU, downpipe, couplers, band clamps, oil feed lines, oil drain tube and other hardware.
When the kit is ready for production, you will have the choice of turbos, I/C's, wastegates, BOV's, headers and piping color. Of course some choice will affect the kit price, but trust me, only the best will do.

It was good meeting you also. I love the TL.
The battery is in the trunk in front of the sub enclosure. If you pull the armrest and the the storage cover down you can access it there. There are 2 charging post under the car if needed. Hopefully we won't have to worry about that.

Man, those wheels are definately sick. I might have to get a set myself.
I would definately, definately get a new exhaust. I'm sure that thing would benefit from a better breathing exhaust.
Definately a nice car

The bodyshop just scuffed the grille with a 3M Scotchbrite pad and spreayed it flat black. The car will soon have the RonJon grille in it, if I can ever get it from Ron.
The turbo kit is using a Turbonetics 60-1 ballbearing turbo with a stage 5 exhaust wheel. The wastegate and BOV are Turbonetics, and the intecooler is a Spearco 4 row with top and bottom tanks. The kit uses a Vortech 12-1 FMU, an Apex-i VAFC, Comptech in tank pump, AEM UEGO controller. For this install we used DC Headers, but can use Comptech also, and everything else is custom piping.
The car will recieve the Comptech cat back this weekend, just did not have enough time to get it here and on before the event this past weekend.

The only specs we do not have as of yet are the dyno numbers, we should have them sometime next week. They have to make some changes to the FMU. It comes set up for 12-1, and we need to lower to between 7-1 and 9-1 so the car does not run so rich. We will post the numbers as well as the AFR when they get them next week.
As far as everything else goes, all the specs have been listed already, but we will keep you posted on the actual numbers.
All the pics are on pages 1 and 2 of the actual kits being built.

list and pictures of everything that is included would help everyone decide. i personally would like to see more pictures of the kit to see the quality of the work and dyno #'s.
i when i mean pictures i dont mean like overall pics but more detailed as in closeups of all the custom parts.

I will get those for you this weekend. They are installing the Comptech exhaust, and Comptech swaybars on Saturday. I should have plenty of time under the car to get good pics for you.
I will do close ups of the piping, the components, and fitment for you guys.

I am not building the kit, just helping them sell and market it. The shop that built it does alot of work turbocharging cars that kits are not available for.

This list was posted earlier.

I doubt it will work with the Comptech Icebox, since the inlet on the 60-1 is a 4" opening. They made a 4" aluminum pipe with a HKS filter for the intake.

I can back it up, I believe. I know this shop's reputation. I've been in the Atlanta tuner scene for 5 years. I know how they are. You can trust their quality and craftsmanship.

considering they build these cars, and
dragging a motor across the floor;

i would never walk into that shop.

As for an oil pan, it can support the engine all day long, that what it was designed for
i would never walk into that shop.
