Default Opinions???

Hey yall, how much can you expect out of this system?

flanges are cnc cut for flatness and accuracy / 2.5” Under Motor Crossover ( Aluminized ) with wastegate mount and V band flanged connection / 2.5 mandrel bent discharge pipe / 3.00” exhaust from down pipe to converter / Turbonetics 60-1 turbo charger / Turbonetics Evolution stainless wastegate / Spearco front mount intercooler with cast aluminum tanks. / Aluminized mandrel bent compressor ducting / Silicone hose connections with HD stainless hose clamps. / HKS by-pass valve / Gravity flow oil drain with cnc cut flange / Large K&N Filter / Billet valve cover vent system.

Ill probably get some stainless exhaust manifolds from somewhere. Turbo has a spring in it to run 10psi. Right now i dont know what heads and cam im running open for suggestions.

It depends what kinda PSI your lookin to run? yea the turbo can go 10 PSI but that doesnt mean your fuel system and engine can handle it. If you wanna handle 10 PSI probally goin to need bigger injectors and a new hi flow pump. With the cam id contact thunderracing with your setup, they seem to be very knowledgeable when it comes to cams, or try seaching in the FI section or the internal engine section. Most people with 5-6 PSI put down around 400-420 at the wheels, and if you got it up to 10 PSI id guess 480-500 at the wheels, Good luck

thanks i realize im going to need a fuel system bigger injectors and tune. My plan is FAST XFI (efi), Motrons (spelling) 60pds injectors, Not sure which fuel system yet, Ported FAST 90/90, and im not sure about heads and cam yet. I have a stock crank getting micropolished and Nitrated, I have Forged Lunati Pro Mod 6.125 connecting rods and will run diamond forged pistons. I end up getting a Double roller timing chain also. MSD Blaster coils and i cant really think of anything else right now. I was going to run a T-76 but this kit is hard to pass up right now for the price and it comes with a 60-1 turbo. If i decide to upgrade to a T-76 in the future will i need to change anything other than the turbo? Sorry for all the newb questions, im brand new to turbo's and somewhat new to LSx. Ive been a LT guy since i was 16.
