just goes to show you that there are guys out there that have know idea of this forum. and as for looking slow well he did not really appear to be getting traction and also was probably a little hesitant about really going at it i know i was the first few days, the system is insanely quick

If you listen to the video his tires are spinning thru the entire take off. This is mainly caused by his 20 inch 275 rear wheel choice in the rear.
Smoke from the exhaust during the TUNING phase of they dyno is normal ESP. with new turbos. Its normal for the first few miles and is in the instructions from Hellion.
The majority of the FUTURE GT500 putting down 1000 rwhp+ will be Turbo. The GT500 crowd being newer is a bit behind the TERM TT crowd. They are already a few TERM Cobras putting down over 1000 rwhp+ using compound Hellion kits with less displacement. Only TT GT500's I know of over 1000 rwhp are the Evolution TT car and Hellions test car running non-compound.

Hey I know its fast!
But that video was not very telling
I did not like the sound much either of the car
That is sort of the mystique of a turbo car, they just go! very effortlessly, quietly and drama free

Drama free???? I will bet you will hear of more problems with guys running TT kits then you will twin screws once they have some miles on them. TT's are not as friendly as you may think they are. Pluse you will never see a guy run a 100k with a TT kit unlike guys with guys with TS.
He's making 742hp on 17lbs... I have yet to see a twin screw with stock heads, and stock cams make that kind of power with 17lbs. But if anybody knows of one and can post the dyno and numbers please do.

I realize that sounded like I was complaining or talking smack but I was not.
I was curious because I have seen several (online) KB or Whipple GT500s doing 700-760 RWHP running around 21 psi. I realize thats 4 more psi for the same numbers but isnt it much lighter/cheaper/easier and less complicated to just put a large twin screw?
I am pretty familiar with engine modding as I have had over 15 Mustangs and just a couple months ago got rid of my 03 Termi so blowers are nothing new eaither.
I understand there is a limit to what the stock internals will take but is it more stress on the rods/pistons to make 750 with a 3.4 Whipple at 23ish psi vs. a compound boost setup at 17-18psi making the same rwhp?
I mean if the GT500s internals are good for 800 rwhp on a twin screw does that mean it can handle 850 on a compound setup?
And no need to explain boost/cfm relation as I understand that as well but I figured 800hp max is 800 hp max
Also, wouldnt a compound kit cause the engine to run hotter no that it has yet another heat exchanger to deal with?
Sorry for the n00b questions. I am saving up and hope to have a black/black 2010 GT500 coupe by the end of next year.

I think what you are seeing more than anything is. Most guys are running what John(Hellion) is telling them is "safe" as far as boost levels go. Who really needs more power on the street than the numbers that have been posted on these kits. They also have put out over 1k rwhp with this set up without a SC so the power is there.
