It depend on your goals and what you want out of it. A 67 will spool super fast and make enough power to grenade the average stock ls motor.

i concure for sure...
my name says it all.
stock 2006 LS2 CTS-V m6 373's...

gt67 spools fast all the way till redline.

even if i had forged internals, i would still stay at this hp
level and turbo size, as it's almost to good to be true for a dd.

so i went to the shop last night,
its the first time ive heard the car start since everything has been installed.
and i got a chubby.lol running an open down pipe isnt good for a sleeper scheme. but sounds good.
but i got the fuel pump in no problems, and i think anthony will be installing the intercooler piping this week
honestly didnt expect the car to be done this fast. once he started it only took about 4 days to have most of the work complete.

Anthony is a stand up guy for sure. He tuned my APS car last week after another shop couldn't get it quite right. He had the airfuel nailed and perfectly flat on the FIRST dyno pull, I couldn't believe it! It runs like a champ and drives like its stock. And he really is good about keeping you informed and explaining what he is doing. I had a lot of questions but didn't want to bug him while he was working on my car. I was going to keep my questions to myself but I didn't have to as he let me know what was going on and what he was doing the whole time. I've never been that comfortable with someone beating the **** out of my car before. I'm usually pretty uneasy during tuning sessions.

He's got some other cool **** at his shop too. He owns a nasty 8-second turbo TA and a foxbody that will be running 8's next season. He had some badass customer cars there... a turbo Cobra that he built from the ground up that will definitely be in the high 8's/low 9's next season, a twin turbo Viper build he was doing, a twin t67 ZO6 build, a 1xxx rwhp Supra that he built, a turbo R1 and about four other fbody's waiting for motors/kits. He's busy as **** I know that; but everything he touches is fast.

btw, kit looks awesome Anthony. I would definitely have done that had it been around last year. I came really close to having you do that 6.0 liter kit but it came down to A/C.

I guess you can strap it down on your dyno and see how it runs b/c it won't be hooking on the street anytime the rest of this year unless you put on some sticky tires and heat them up really good. I can't hold anything in this weather with 315 Nitto drags. What are you shooting for on the stock motor, 525?

i believe the goal was 550. but after i get a lil more money prolly next year or next winter ill do rods and pistons, a trans, speed den. and a t-76 and go from there.
i just ran out of money this go around. and had some really bad luck the last couple of weeks.lol

but yea anthony knows his sh*t, he has built so many respected cars around here its crazy.

this has to be the most impressive front mount i've seen, keeps AC, can upgrade to larger TC without too much modification from what i can tell and spools ten times better than my butt mount

great work!

There are tons of turbos up to ATLEAST a 76 gts that will bolt right in. Thanks for the kind words.

I got the car strapped to the dyno finally. It makes 8 psi(where we plan on staying) at 3200 rpms. Is that 10x better then your butt mount? LOL
