Well currently i have a 2000 Camaro Z28, I have stage 2.5 5.3 heads, MS3 cam, 43lb injectors, bbk intake, TSP headers and true duals, SLP oil pump, 4.10s, Moster stage 3 clutch with light flywheel. My t56 is currently at tick performance getting rebuilt with the Viper shaft, and upgrade... My mail in tune got me at 421 rwph,, however i want more..
I decided to begin building a turbo. With that in mind i have a few things i need to upgrade and or get rid of.
TSP headers
TSP true duals
MS3 cam
BBk intake
ABS delete

The things i need are

New cam thinking custom grind for turbo
Turbo 76mm - still deciding
Double roller timing chain
LQ4 block
doubles in tank 255
80lb injectors and new fuel rails, going on ls1 intake...

Since you're already getting your trans built here, we'd be glad to help out with the cam and turbo if you haven't already chosen them as well!

Turbonetics 7875 or Precision 7675 would be a great turbo and package well!
