You have alot of work and learning ahead of you. I think the turbo's will be too small. You can make 'em work, but you'll probably have them spooling at idle...Do you know any spec's of em?

I use to have a 3000gt twin turbo. those turbos were to small for the 3.0L V6 they max out at like 450rwhp on the V6, they will be way too small for you LS1 V8...

agreed, thoes things are way to small. turbos are universal. also they are at least 7 years old, i would be weary about a turbo with that many miles.

Blah, just get two more 7 year old turbos and run one per two cylinders. Then you would be good for 800hp or so. JK

Unfortunately, stock 9b turbos from the 3/S's are worth next to nothing. I gave mine away when I upgraded the turbos on my 93 Stealth TT. On the turbo sizing for a 346 cubic inch motor, they're way too small. Someone mentioned 450 horsepower at the tires with the stock turbos. I've never seen anywhere near that. That's actually 15g turbo territory. I hope you didn't give a bunch of money for them. If someone offers you a hundred bucks for the pair, take it quick and don't look back. Just my opinion of course.

Correct, Mitsu 9B's are junk turbos, dump them off quickly if you can.
