Intake set up for big single turbo? I would like to hear from someone with extensive knowledge or experiance about intakes and throttle bodies for big single turbos,mostly street some strip.Why would you use or not use the following,ls6 with factory type tb,victor jr with elbow or gmpp intake with 90.What are most guys running?

That is one thing I was wondering about is the air distribution,looks like the possibility of going lean on a couple of cylinders would have to be a bad thing on a forced induction set up.I know the ls6 will make more torque at lower rpm's but with a 800-1000 hp how can it make that much difference?

I use a wilson elbow that accepts my 105mm tb I had to cut the cowl off the car but it wasnt a big deal at all. I run the VFN 4in ram air that goes back to the window

I have the same setup. I'm a little leary of Dave's elbow though. It sure necks down pretty small to fit under the cowl.
