Street Outlaws Kamikaze’s New Twin Turbo Setup on the Elco!
If you’ve been keeping up with the 405 Street Outlaws guys then you’ve probably noticed there have been alot of motor changes and upgrades. Of course there is always a need and/or want to go faster to stay on top. Here is a glimpse of Kamikaze Chris’ brand new turbo setup and in the video below he’s showing us around under the hood giving more details about the new setup.
As you can see, the car has a awesome looking turbo setup installed around the Fast Times Motorworks-built engine. Chris doesn’t reveal the exact displacement of the engine, but he does narrow it down to “somewhere around 540-550 cubic inches”, which should give him plenty of top end without being too rowdy down low as he states. The twin Precision Gen II Pro Mod turbochargers are built with billet wheels and are 94mm in size which should help produce around 3,000 horsepower according to Kamikaze. That sure makes the Elco a top contender and a car that everyone should be worried about lining up against.
There is no doubt at all that Kamikaze is taking the Elco to a whole a new level compared to the previous nitrous combo. Over the past few years the car has transformed alot from being a thrown together “used parts” car from when Flip had it, to now what it has become today. It’s uncertain when this setup will show up on the show, one is to guess likely in season 12 since season 11 is currently filming. Before it’s debut on the show keep your eyes out on the streets.
The next 2 seasons of Street Outlaws should be an interesting now that Monza has also converted to a turbo setup on his split bumper Camaro. Boosted GT is back in the game as well with a new mustang. Along with Doc’s 900+ cubic inch 5 stage nitrous Monte Carlo Street Beast and Reapers new Procharged Camaro are the only racers who haven’t made the switch to turbo.
