Default 5.3 turbo kit

Hey guys new on here and was wondering if I can get some help...i have a 5.3 that I'm trying to build, my goal is probably around 600hp and was wondering if anyone know any good turbo kits or maybe some other parts that can help me reach my goal, or should I just go and build a 6.0

I've heard KB Racing has been making truck kits for about 10 years too.

The base kit will do everything you need and more. You will need to upgrade your fuel pump and injectors to support the power goal. I might also look into a pair of valve springs. We can reach your goals with plenty of turbo options, when ready shoot me an email if interested and we can go over more details to choose the best turbo for your goals, use of the truck and budget. Thanks!

X2 for Kyle @ KB Racing ... he supplied me with a nice log manifold for my Nova and I finished off the crossover. I am sure his T4 hotside log will fit in a blazer.
