Cost to turbo an LS1...
Can someone give me a run-down of parts & costs on a good single turbo setup for an LS1? The max. I would like to spend is about $20k.
Thanks.
Thanks.

no, she doesnt want an ebay kit.
I'll be honest and say that I don't know a lot about turbo systems, but I'm willing to learn.
I'd like to know the best kit out there for the LS1...
what cam to use with it [size, brand, etc.]?
gears?
pistons, rods, rockers, & other various engine components..?
fuel system?
stock tranny [m6] or switch to a4 + stall?
Im reading up on everything I can right now, but I'd like some cliff's notes because there's ALOT of info out there on the intrawebz

Can/should I stick with my stock ls1? Do you recommend going bigger? 347?
The turbo size will heavily depend on the engine size and power goals, correct? 650-700rwhp is not completely unattainable on a stock block, is it?

But everyone knows auto's are slow lol.. I can't wait to turbo my car, going to be a cheap *** though lol..
The turbo is an APS kit, idk how good they are. If you are somewhat close I would love to help you install it since I am afraid to tear down my car haha.
Any thank you someone that doesn't like bogarts haha, I have always been to scared to say it.
