Built lq9 turbo opinions! Hi All.
Just about to pickup my new engine.
LQ9 block stroked to 403ci, Dragonslayer crank, callies rods, custom 9.5:1 pistions, big custom camshaft, arp bolts/nuts, ls3 intake, heads and throttle body etc.
Now having a maloo (Australian pickup) I have the choice to mount twin high mount turbos, twin low mount turbos or a highmount single turbo.
I want between 750-850whp through the 6 speed manual gearbox, the maloo will be running on e85 when it gets boost. This will be more of a weekend car and will be used on 4-5 track days per year and the 1/4 now and then. Obviously I don't want to wait forever for the boost to hit but I also want a car that will really get going with roll on highway like racing etc.
Would the twins outperform the single with highway like racing? If I did go a single would the garret 42 or 45 get the job don't with minimal lag?
im a new to the racing setups so ANY feedback would be great!
Thanks in advance!
