Looking for a good turbo kit.

Comes with everything except the turbo. The system uses a bypass valve since these are MAF cars.

I would feel better about the turbo(s) being close to the heat source. I guess I am just old school about that. I will look into those web pages to see what I can find there. I just have never had any luck finding anything for a turbo kit on an LS1 by using Google search.
Thanks guys.

So what would be a good catback system for it? I mean will a gmmg be a good one? Also got pics of the turbo mating to catback?
Btw Purevl can you give me more details of why you are going with a front mount? Or do you just want to try something new? I may just got right ahead with a front mount instead of my sts idea..I was thinking of a f1 though...humm

Well I really want a front mount but risking getting pulled over by a cop is not worth it for me since I live in Cali...I like sts but it seems tacky to a point of having one subframe and using the return pipe as a subframe too... Also I'm worry it may just run nice but sounds awful.. But if you were to compare the sts with a f1 how would you rate it? Why do you feel turbo is so much funner btw?

As said before, you should check out the phamspeed kit. It doesnt come with a BOV or intercooler, but he does also make intercoolers(cheap price)and sells the BOV's. I have talked to him since i am leaning in that direction also. just cant make up my mind. But he is also in the process of making a twin turbo kit also that he said will cost somewhere around 4000-4500 bucks +/-300 bucks. His work looks really good and i have done some of the math on the costs and to have a totally drive ready 8psi kit it was somewhere in the ballpark of $6k. Which is cheaper than most places. Give him a call and he will be happy to talk to you and help you out, i am sure of it. And as stated before wait and see what HPTurbo comes out with, supposed to be making a stage 1 kit for us right now.
