Default What turbo?

I was just curious, but what size turbo's are people running with stock LS1's. And when I say stock, I mean stock, and what amount of boost are they running? Also, what power can you see? Thinking about doing a turbo setup on an LS1 here in the future..

thats a very large turbo, I wouldn't put that on a stock motor. You wont get that thing close its efficiency range, and if you tired that stock motor would become a worthless pile of parts.

All your questions have been answered before. If your wanting answer custom to your set up call a sponsor. i hope you have money for a fuel system, that rear end your gonna break, that tranny(or clutch) your gonna burn up, the heads your gonna need.


long story short no one can help you till you figure out your goals. Do you want a 88mm bad *** street kit, or do you want something that you can have fun with on a stock motor. What tranny is in the car? daily driver? Figure out what you want, and then the people here can help you
