Default LS1 Motorsports Single Turbo

What are the differences between the Turbo Tech and LS1 Motorsports kits?

Which one is better?

So far from what I am seeing the LS1 motorsports kit is the way to go...I am a little more impressed in what they have to offer....Speed Inc. and another company (forgot the name) are working on getting a turbo setup together...they are 10 mins away from me, so if they come out with a good, PROVEN product, I will most likely buy that, all depends on the price too...the ls1motorsports kit is a little on the pricey side...

both the charged air kit and the ls1m kit are very expensive..

i havent seen an advertisement yet with what exactly the charge air kit comes with, but ls1m give a detailed description of all the extras they include here:

http://www.ls1motorsports.com/Single_Turbo.htm

I owned a turbotech kit and it was/is good for the money that i paid at the time which was $4k BUT that is a base kit with no options. If you look at the ls1m kit when you take away all the option values (tuner kit) it is only around $4800 or so for a better turbo, better wastegate, better crossover etc.

It looks like the turbo tech website is down, but i have pics of my old kit in my sig and will have pics of the ls1m kit there soon as i get it.

How much rpm/boost/rwhp is the T76 good for?

I would call and ask them these questions but I am not ready to buy and do not want to waste there time.

I have a ouestion on the LS1 motorsport kit. How will the O2 sensor on the drivers side manifold be able to correct the fuel on that side with both sides exhaust flowing through the same manifold? Where are the O2 sensor to be located? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Has anyone heard of a tuner kit being available yet? I sent rob an email two weeks ago and haven't heard back yet.

Their kit is avialable so if you wanna buy just give him a call.

the T-76 will support about 950fwhp.

240: the pass 02 sensor is on the passenger to drivers side crossover and the drivers 02 sensor is at the beginning of the main downpipe as far as i know.. there is really no way to get around having the drivers sensor influenced by the passengers side exhaust. pleasea remember though that for a properly working engine these readings will be virtually identical, and close enough the computer will not see any problems/need for adjustment. the turbotechnology kit is the same way.

white 2k2, emailing them just isnt going to work, call and he'll tell you all you want.
