Yeah - it should be right at 500 rwhp. Maybe a little over.

It was a kit I bought off PT.net - a prototype kit built by a company no longer in business, for a Denali HD. Long story short, they built it for the drivers side and due to the difference in the Denali design and Silverado, it wouldn't fit. So I kept the turbo (Turbonetics) and wound up scrapping a lot of the pipe and stuff. Bought new hot pipes from KB racing and installed everything over a long weekend.

The thread is HERE on LS1truck. It has pictures pretty much from the beginning to the end. It's a lot of reading and weeding but all the info is there if anyone is interested.
