Can you tell me about your water pump set up? Is that something you made, or does someone sell the setup with the electric motor?

Fuel pressure was rock steady at 68 lbs.
And yes I am easy on it.... but it still feels good.

Default Way to go

Tickled to find your build--awesome! I am gathering parts for the same setup
or have been for a while and this is just what I needed. Where is your turbo oil supply source--looks to be coming from front and did you find some pre built stubs for the wastegates or fab the whole thing. Especially liked the fact you have just tested the fuel pumps I was scared to chance.Thanks a million.

Turbo oil feed comes from a T at the oil pressure sender.
I fabbed all the other plumbing.
Glad to help

T.Fiddler, what RPM are your turbos fully spooled at? I have what I think are the same/similar turbos on my 5.3. I feel like they are not spooling as fast as they should be. The internal gates keep the boost down at about 10 lbs which is odd because yours wouldn't keep your boost down at all.

Not really sure how to answer that. It made 4lbs at 3000 on the 2 step.
But I am only floored for about 1.5 seconds as the tree comes down.
I am still learning the car as I only have 9 runs on this combo. I will post a data screen shot in a bit.

I am sure if I left at a higher rpm on the 2 step this graph would look a bit different. But like I say I am still learning the combo. My converter is VERY loose now so that will be adjusted this winter.

Thanks. That screen shot is basically what I have going on. Big difference between my manual and your auto though.

Do you run it on a 2 step?

I may have to look into this instead of a single on my stock LS1 third gen Camaro. Does anyone know what size turbos would be ideal for the same result on a 5.7?

Depending on your HP goals I would use these or 60mm. I am sure my engine will get to 5.7 when it needs freshened. I am happy with this setup, but max power was not my goal.

That's pretty much where I'm at. 9.50 is as fast as I want to go. I don't want to turn this into a gang affair. I like to be able to go to the track even if no one else can go help.

Thanks 40FordDeluxe.

Tracks being closed is already bugging me.
