Want to turbo my 2000 Z/28 with 71000 miles. I have done some research and thought I would see if I could get some info from some fellow members with either setup. I know injectors and a good tune are a must, but would it be realistic to run 8 to 10 psi on a stock LS1? If not what would be a number I could run or what would I have to do to the engine to be able to run 8 to 10psi without blowing up my engine?

yeah if your going to go turbo kytp front mount is the way to go,if your set on turbo by all means that is a great way to go, im looking for a really good used d1sc procharger kit, i have read for days and months and for me a procharger seems to be the easiest way, bolt on ,tune, and roll,you will need fuel upgrades as well but do some research on prochargers you might change your mind .all i can say is read ,read,read about what you wanna do,also maybe talk to josh at kytp, he is full of good info,good luck man

i wouldnt just say sts flat out sucks, for a stock long block its actually not a bad setup. just the stupid oil return pump. aps is a nice kit with **** turbo's thats no longer made/supported.

procharger is a great setup but head unit repairs scared me away from it. BIG money to fix.

I went with a front mount kit from josh at ky turbo

I have a used rear mount kit off my 99.....and some new ones too.....but the used rear mount kit I went 10.20 @133 on a stock short block. Swap the heads to some 317's (i have a few sets of them too), put in a z06 cam and 60 lb injectors and itll make very nice power. With a 76 mm turbo I was making 630...out of fuel.

My wifes car(a 98) runs 10 to 14 psi, on a stock motor, stock cam, with 317's mls gaskets and arp head studs. On 91 with water / meth.
