I’m really surprised when I watched his video and he clearly didn’t already know about Calvin. Calvin has single handedly put the platform on the map finally getting some aftermarket support even though the cost of the parts are insane so far. I’ve known for many years this engine was a great platform for boost I just never owned one until few years ago and just don’t have funds to do it or it would be done quickly since I could do the work pretty easily.

Bro there is plenty of other turbo trailblazer 4200 out there the company built performance has done a handful I’ve seen at Great Lakes dragway in WI when I go as far back as like 9-10 years ago and saw one as recently as this past summer. They are in the 11s with 4l80 swaps and AWD mechanical SS transfer cases. I think maybe you missed the entire sub culture around here somehow given your other video claims. I just looked I wonder why they don’t post shit on KZitem anymore cause they are sick trucks

Yea im sure there are but ive done my own research and never found anything on others. Only ones I've seen are half finished projects. The completed ones i know about ive found from folks posting on the 420p facebook page. Ive asked what they run and they are in the 14s.

The only video i know they have is a remote mount turbo sound clip. Went to their website and facebook page they have listed, and they dont appear active.. I'd have a hard time believing their remote mount kit was.near as capable as the setup we are running, but i could be wrong.

@@J-Whit what year TB did you use? I heard certain years are slightly easier to turbo than others. I believe it has something to do with the ECU and MAP BAR. Also heard that the E67 ECU may be your best bet, as it can run a BAR 2 or 3 while keeping the exhaust VVT function. Thanks! Love the video.

@edgarvera8890 thats correct. 08/09 had the e67. Also flex fuel capable. Mine is an 09. The 06/07 can also be boosted on the stock ecu.

@@Thumper68 People have remote mounted them in the rear, im just not a fan of that. you have to scavenge the oil drained from the turbo back to the pan. id prefer to have it gravity drain. not to mention much more piping and potential lag.
