Build ideas for 450-500hp with single turbo?
2002 camaro ss 37xxx miles 4L60E
$6,000 or so budget
only mods are corsa cat back (with muffler delete soon) and a handheld tune (jsut used it to change shift time and diagnostics)
With a low miles engine, i wasnt looking to swap out any cam, heads, or pistons, but looking for ideas for a turbo build that will get me around 450 hp
Street application, never at the strip. Would an sts turbo kit alone be able to get me around those numbers SAFELY? I would rather a front mount, and i dont care about losing a/c. Can anyone shoot me some opinions on a build or ideas?
again i would more enjoy a front mount turbo,m i think one of the wells on the camaro front fascia with a filter would be a cool mounting spot, where are your front mounts mounted?

What about that Huron kit? Thats a really front mount kit. And all the piping is pretty much done.....I'd do one but I live in CA so I'm trying to hunt down a pre-76 camaro....whoa! what folks want for 70-73 junk is unbelieveable.

Don't be scared of STS. Mine makes around 550hp on 6lb boost at the motor and it spools fast enough to fry the tires from a dig or a roll, wouldn't want boost any quicker. Mpg stayed same before and after too.
