LS2 = LS1 as far as a turbo system goes. Therefore speed inc, pham, tti, hi-flo, and truck mani/custom look in the FAQ it gives a list of all the kits, this was prob just a part of them. W2W and Stenod are known for there custom fab skills in turbo kits around here.

Tuning: EFILIVE,MAFT PRO, HPT all are great to tune cars with. All offer a 2-3 bar SD OS for boosted LS1's.

Or take it to one of our many sponsors to get it tuned once all the turbo stuff is sorted out.

BS3 is the commercial favorite. EFILive and HPT are good on the stock comp(up to 2bar). MegaSquirt has been done if your on a budget, its completely up to you buddy.

it isnt in there because i have one and hate it, the flexibility of the other systems is completely uncompareable to that of a predator. Download EFILive play with it for a few min's you will start to understand. www.efilive.com

What are his power goals? That will determan what kind of kit/fuel system to get!! Also if you like doing that kind of thing I would highly recomend building your own kit!! Get a set of manifolds and go to town!!!! Make it fit his car!!!!
