Looking to boost my 1985 Chevrolet 1 ton short box. Currently has a sbc 350 I have a lq4 out of a 2004 Silverado only has 80000 k on it. Looking for suggestions on turbo, I would settle for eBay turbo kit for now looking to make 6-750 hp. Using th 400 trans .would like to use pump gas water meth if needed

I Alison have Efi live for tuning so I'll be using the stock harness with upgraded map sensor etc.

I'm new to this site if I'm doing something wrong please let me no

Rickyglaim

Anyone ?.....

Can't go wrong with a Borg Warner S475. That's the most common recommended turbo here.

I agree with Joe but there a many ways to achieve your goal. A kit from KBracing or Trick would work well and keep things simple.

I am able to build all the hot piping myself is their a certain eBay turbo that also works well ?? S475 was what I was thinking is their any junk yard turbos that could be use ??? That is big enough for my power goal

Rickyglaim

Rickyglaim

Alot of guys have used those GT45s successfully. I have one but it only has a ton of idle time. Not much driving as i have to still tune.
I must admit i kinda wish i had have gotten the S475 as there is more room to grow and the Borgs are extremely tough turbos. BUT... they are large in size but in a truck there is lots of room for fitment.

Rickyglaim

So would the middle link work ? First turbo build cheaper would be better for me right now but if it's just way more convenient s475 would be a better option please can some one give me some feedback

Have you figured out what you are doing for fuel? Pump, lines fuel pressure regulator and injectors?

Yes u can get a budget ebay turbo for around $300 that will do the job will it out last or make near the power as a s475 borg will? Hell no. Go ahead and spend the couple hundred more and get a s475 and be done. That turbo will make all the power u would want and last forever. U could possibly get one cheap in the for sale section used.

Rickyglaim

No I'm pretty new to the whole LS thing but I got a fresh motor and cash going to be doing some daily driving with it so looking for a good pump and what like some 80 pound injectors?

Rickyglaim

Should I be worrying about a cam for my hp goal cause I'd like to get even more power one day any suggestion please

Cams are easy to swap out later. Just run the stock cam for time being with some siemen deka 80s.

Rickyglaim

Walbro 255s seem to be the cheapest fuel system how ar both of those ran? I'll be running fuel cell and I really appreciate your help thanks

Like my post above, there are many different ways to achieve your goal. Invest a bit of time researching the net and compile a parts list on an Excel spreadsheet. You can go sloppy using China stuff or higher quality stuff. Budget is going to be the biggest factor.

When you get your parts list post it up and we can evaluate.
