All most people need is a centrifigal supe...

The make larger than standard models for stroker and big bore LTX and LSX engines....

Twins are the best way to go on a V8 for turbos... If you do it right you better be shifting with a lenco.....

Which is why I say for most people just run a big ATI or something...

why don't you forget that idea about the turbo an dthink the power you could make if you upped the bore and stroke to something big like 346 cubic inches.

Oh my....

http://www.turbotechnologyinc.com/ls1_corvette.htm

I think I found my cast manifolds.....



In this article they use just garret T28's on DSM's we consider them to be a basic turbo upgrade from a T25.....

http://www.turbotechnologyinc.com/C5ARTICLE.htm

Must spool fast as hell on a LS1.. They they don't spool that much later than the stock t25 so most autocrossers and street cars run them... All the drag guys dont hit spool to High mid to high 3k rpms... sometimes higher running much larger garrets.. Those manifolds got me drooling however.....

Will those manifolds fit a F-body, and if so are they for sale?
