Another vote for the Ohio Forced induction kit. It will fit the S-88 Turbo and retains all accesories in stock position and keeps AC. Get ahold of Joel and he will be able to help you out. I just went through what you are doing searching for a good kit, I just ordered the OFI one as my only option was to keep the AC with a large turbo. From what I saw, his was the only one that checked out. Check out this thread. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...rced+induction

I talked to Brooks for a long time bout doing a setup for me but decided I didnt want to be down changing my setup for 6-12 months, so I just bought the TNT kit to get my fix for a while.

He did Andrew's kit...he built the cars kit that won the texas street car shootout (welloutside the promod they let run)...he built his own hit...he built truestreet5.8's kit I believe too. I'm sure he can build anything you want to do.

Brooks has my vote.... If you are going NO AC.... Billy at TRT in Arlington has alot of input as well... he just finished a front mounted Twin setup on a Road Race car and the welds along with install is pretty clean..... of course this was with truck manifolds 6.0's blah blah blah.....

He is creative and can fab just about anysort of piping. Already sells more custom front mount intercoolers and has a certain fella that can help with more experience with LS1's then 3 or 5 of you fellas combined.

couple of cars he has done:
