Turbo'd LS1 Transam (red)

The filter is definitely in a tough spot, but it does come with that K&N baggy thing over it to protect it. You could get some black plastic sheet and make a guard for the filter pretty easily.

Most LS1's dyno about 300 rwhp stock for an M6 and 280-290 for an A4. With this setup, I should be able to get about 470-490 rwhp @ 8 psi, which is really about all you want to run until a forged bottom end is installed. I got the GT-67 upgrade from the base 60-1, so I should have plenty of potential if I go that route. I think I'm going to wind up re-oiling that K&N every oil change, though.

plumb it into the trunk/hatch/whatever and run a small scoop in the trunk lid

What's up Austin? This is Lucas, fellow ME student/graduating senior at NDSU. I'm sure your car is going to be fun. Are you staying in the area? i.e. will you be brining that baby out to Sabin this summer? Hopefully my engine/tranny will stay together long enough after I finish the SC project to get a few good runs in at least. I'm not even done with my 94', but have already been looking at compressor maps for a turbo for my 96'. I just took a job in DL, so I will still be close enough to Sabin to get out to most of the events next summer. Hopefully this next summer will be bigger and better that last summer. I think this town is slowing moving from complete rice to a slight more performance oriented crowd. Don't hold me to that statement though.

Hello. Congratulations on the job! I'm trying to get a job in the area here, and I'll definitely be out at Sabin. It'll be cool to see that SC project finally run. Comparing the turbo and S/C cars should be interesting.
