Default Turbo setup car needed...

Let me introduce myself. My name is joel and I own a performance shop here in cleveland, oh called OHIO FORCED INDUCTIONS INC. I have been building turbo kits for some time now and want to get my hands on a C5 or C6. Either one would be ok,but the C5 would be more boost friendly. Im looking for a donar car to get this started. I will need the car for about 3 weeks. PM me or email me for more info. Thanks Agian. Some of you already know who I am.

Actually Joel, the C6 LS2 has proven to be the better engine for boost. They are making far better numbers than the stock C5 or C5-Z did, and seem to take more boost reliably.

I figured they would make about the same amount of power ,but with less boost. I was just referring to the tuning part of it. I dont think anybody has a good 2 or 3 bar tune out for the LS2 pcm yet....that I know of.
