replacing turbo on my STS LS1 next week
alright so i am replacing my turbo on my "STS Build" the turbo i had on it before was a no-name AR.68/.96 and now i'm putting on a ON3 turbo specs are AR.81/.96.
so my question is to all the FI gurus is what am I to expect with putting a bigger turbo on? will it effect my wastegate diaphragm and spring? I going to guess with the obvious that it wont spool up like the old turbo being as its bigger or maybe it'll spool better because its a known chinese turbo haha
i also have a Cam with it that was said claimed it was a turbo cam, its specs are 214/219 601/555 118LSA. will this work good? i have the cam card with in depth information about it.
any information will be much appreciated.

interested on how yours does. im fabing my entire rear mount using the T76 from ON3. thats another guy on here thats using it on his rear mount and says the thr ON3 T76 with .81 AR spools up nice with wrapped pipes.
that cam will do better then my stock ls1 cam lol
im getting a custom cam from tick in the 226/235 range. should be fun
how was your car running before you decided to up the turbo?
