5 PSI with my set up. Need advice Should I buy this and install it on my car? https://ls1tech.com/forums/ls4-perfo...l#post16769411
Current set up is:
5.3L
Pat G cam 218/222 113.5 .600/.600
TFS 205cc heads
10.8 CR 8.6 DCR
LS6 intake
3" into dual 2.5" exhaust.
Basically 3.73 gears
I would obviously need tunning and more fuel. Would this turbo work ok with my cam, compression and gears? I shift at 6500 RPM. I would like to step up to a inter cooler later in life.
Is it worth it or not?

I am not a fan of non intercooled kits. Yes you can get away with it, but the summers around here are way too hot. My IAT's would be insane. If you were to run this without an intercooler, You would need a meth kit, or an e-85 conversion. All of which cost as much or more than adding an intercooler to the turbo kit. Just something to keep in mind.
Good luck on your quest for boost. I know I'm enjoying it.
