twin turbo 6.0?????? I have a lq4 and just bought 2 super t4 turbos .60 .85 and two 40mm wg and two 50mm bov. Have I jumped the gun or will this work for a little more hp and a lot of show. It isn't a racecar but a driven on weekends toy that I just wanted to shock people with when I open the hood. Thanks For the help.

all you need now is someT4 flanges, o2 bungs, manderel bends and an intercooler ,and few other things.
dont forget the fuel system upgrade. pump, injectors
keep us posted on the progress , it will bee sweet after all the cuss words and busted knuckles
are you flipping the manifolds is so check the top sticky

I have some ls2 injectors and I am running a external pump fron street and performance. tha pump has 100psi max on the side but with the return style truck rails I am only seeing 55 at idle. I have a ls6 intake and returnless rail and was planing on using a corvette filter regulator. This is all on my 68 Impala ss convertible. Thanks again I knew I could count on you guys.

only happened a few times where the turbo housing was glued together think on a honda , guy has one on www.turbomustangs.com and his has held 9psi fine only problem hes having is second gear burnies . maybe put a screen in the inlet just in case the nut flys off the impeller 
most will say they are junk its not worth risking you engine . if you have more cash get the turbos from somewhere else . the wastegate they sell and blowoff valves are good , just not the turbos or manifolds they sell they crack and look like a
its a gamble

Thanks cws t/a for the info I may go to a single after all but it will be winter before I get started so maby I can get some more info on the ssautochrome ones that I have. If nothing else I may see if it is possible to use the housings and build them with some quality parts. PS I am going to run an intercooler just how much junk could get past it and the screen on the maf? Thanks again for everyones help.

these guys here know their LS1 turbo stuff no doubt . that other site is a TURBO only Forum ,{ i was ONLY promoteing to helping the guy do some searching , lots of info over their} check it out , hell last night i saw a post about a truck with a 454ci 2 ssautochrome t-70 s .85 [more like 60mm measured ] running 21psi rearwheel dyno was 811and change hp / 88# rwftlbs TQ he states '' They havent blown apart yet''
the turbos are cheap because they get them in china and some little 14yearold is assembling them for 10cents a day or so they say . some times their are group buys on turbos so you can get a deal on a quality peice . I just dont think the saving money on turbos is worth risking a $5000.00+ engine . If you go single look in a GT-42 76mm more money but well worth it . hope this helps
