stock ls1 motors normally dont like anything past 8 psi

forged internals are ALWAYS a good idea for any FI.


you could run a procharger with low boost and be ok, but if you want more power and want to crank up the boost go forged motor

dunno. how much boost you gonna run? what kinda rear do you have? are you gonna run meth injection or anything?

this would do good in the FI section cuz theres a lot of factors and a lot of hidden cost.

keep in mind you will need a stronger rear, fuel injectors fuel pumps rails all kinds of litle things to go with that procharger

whats plenty of rwhp?

get a realistic set of goals and whats your budget? A full out FI build can really cost some cash and even a simpler set up can go for 10k by the time youve upgraded everything and thats not including a forged motor

heres a thread in FI kinda similar
