Corvette-Up for the winter, but it’ll be wearing a new set of drag radials in the spring (BFG’s). May also raise the ride height in an attempt to gain traction via better weight transfer. I keep getting tempted to put the bigger turbos on it, but reality hits me and I realize that I haven’t even ever driven it@full boost on the street yet.

Other shit-considering building another turbocharged snowmobile, but it wouldn’t be ready until next season. Front mount GT28R this time, good for 300HP on the stock RX1 engine!

Selling my bike and looking for a 2001 RS 2.5, other then that no real mods for anything…we’ll see how the funds are especially with the g/f buying a house and me wanting to go to Ireland.

Last sled made 260 with a rear mounted GT25R. I want to go with a bigger front mount, simply so the turbo can be shown off! Runs all day on 100LL AVGAS.

I have a used Borla that needs to be installed.  
Trans has to come out and get a fresh set of Carbon Syncros  
Lowering springs, Revalved Bilsteins, and other suspension mods.  
LS6 intake manifold.  
Possibly some used headers for the up coming season.

Also have Boxed SFCs and lower control arm relocation kit to be welded in
