Default turbo ls1's, not in camaros- what do you guys do?

do yall buy kits for the camaro and just make it work with your set up? or do you customize everything and start from scratch. i did a search and found that everyone was against doing anything other than a kit for the camaro

I'm building one from scratch. I couldn't make a camaro kit work if I wanted or just about any other kit for that matter. this is all going in a s-10 though and there are a bite tight.

the way i look at it is if you can do the fab work needed to stuff an LSX into anything that didn't come with one you can easily build a turbo kit to fit

I agree, custom fab is only answer in tight quarters.

Every thing we've done has been "open air" in Sandcars 1000 HP+

i have a single turbo setup for sale, 850hp single T70, professional, headers and crossover pipe, big tial BOV turbosmart WG 4x12x24 inch IC.. havent been able to sell it... propably because most people who are talking about turbos will never get around to it.. and the ones who do.. thinks it has been suspiciously cheap at 2500 bucks... so new price: 4500 + shipping
