BOO$T me 71 nova , 6.0 t56 Ok guys my nova is almost done and I got the turbo bug....never done a turbo system before so I could use some help in compiling a parts list( I'd like to do it right 1st time) so heres the list of what car currently has
engine
sbe lq4 with 31k , upgraded oil pump
ls3 heads with .035 cut off .040 commetic gaskets (current comp est of 10.6 to 10.8)
patriot gold 8401 spring
texas speed 225/230 .617/.614, 108
aftermarket sheet metal intake
holley hp efi harness/computer
fuel sytem
tanks inc fuel tank
walbro 450 in tank pump
-6 feed line ,-6 return
aeromotive boost reference regulator
47lb holley injectors
trans
d&d built t56
monster level 3 clutch
dennys drive shaft nitrous ready
rear and suspension
ride tech suspension
9" 31 spline moser axles
Detroit tru trac
4.10 gears
ok I know the 4.10 will have to go
my intial thoughts was a borg s475 ( need help on sizing please, t6?)
flipped truck manifolds, 2.25 hot side
a2a Chinese intercooler ( size??)
blow off valve( brand/size?)
waste gate (brand /size)
different cam?
maybe swap heads for un cut ones or swap to .070 gasket + head studs
meth injection
fuel sytem sufficient?
switch to 80lb injectors
im sure im missing something , parts list and direction on best place to source these items would be great....would like to use sponsors on here if they are reasonable
goal is 650-700rwhp on 93 ( no e85 around me)
heres a few pics of car in current state

Box stock S475 with a T6 turbine will make 650whp on a 6.0 pretty easily, and they run $650 or so. On3 or VS 7875 will do it as well and be cheaper.
With either one, you'll have to swap cams. With 11.5 degrees of overlap, the only thing you could get away with turbo wise would be large turbine twins.
Your heads/compression are fine for E85. With pump, I'd consider swapping back to stock 317s.
Your fuel system is good for 650whp other than injectors.
With enough tire, you could easily get away with 4.10s and a T56.

Well if I swap heads I'll probally just swap for ls3's being I already have the intake. Seems I'd rather run a borg unit than a Chinese one is its only hundreds of dollars difference.
