Wait for the turbo kit from Modular Turbo. From what I hear, that is going to be a bad *** kit. There was a thread just created https://ls1tech.com/forums/forced-in...turbo-kit.html


Check out the thread.

Well there is not that many twin turbo kits available.
As said new modular looks like it should be very nice. Kentucky is putting out some nice stuff as well.
Aps is no longer making f body kits supposedly,but they are still on the website.so not sure and are a good deal used depending on price. But be prepared to change out the stock turbos maybe right away.
Few other used kits out there sometimes..old incon..which was similar to aps..
maybe couple other brands. And thats about it for twins.
You can fab up a system possibly depending on skills. And some shops do pretty much totally custom builds.

Some things to think about.

1. The Modular Turbo kit has the turbos mounted up high for gravity drain back---no need for scavenge pump to put oil back to the motor.

2. It also has an air-to-water intercooler---no need to cut up your bumper cover or remove fog lights for air-to-air intercooler.

3. You are able to put two t4 flange 78mm turbos on this kit with out issue. There was just a vid for a 427 67mm twin turbo that put down 1267 hp on pump gas. So this kit will give you more than enough power.

Zero the T/A isn't meant to be turbo (that's why they put those damn fog lights in the way for a A2A) supercharge it lol jkjk but if you have the time, patience and equipment a lot of people will say to DIY, stand up the radiator, possibly relocate your battery and fuse box and run it in front of the engine. Oh and some truck manifolds. Lol it's hard to say what kit is better than the others all have some kind of pro's and con's so I will agree with Shearer also

I looked at the new kit, thats a b.a. kit. But 7500 is something i can not afford. I might just supercharge it or get a cheaper tt. I am not lookin to put over 1000rwhp down. lol. I just wanna put atleast over 800rwhp.

Well if you are looking to go the APS route. My kit is for sale. And has under 500 miles on it. It's complete, in almost new condition and with a stock motor it will be good. I made about 800hp on that setup with my 408. So if you don't want to spend a lot you can go that route and save some cash. PM me (sorry I'm sounding like I'm whoring this kit, but I'm just trying to help).
