Default we got a first timer

hey guys, il start off saying i am 100% new and a full noob when it comes to the LS platform

however i have been around cars/engines/racing my whole life so i hope the learning goes easily.

im a long time and avid drag racer and i have joined up to the site here to gain some info and a direction as i plan to build a new race car with an ls motor in it.

Is there a specific section of sub-forum i should head to to start gaining the info i need?

thanks for all the help in the future

Welcome! Are you planning on staying NA, zupercharged, turbo, or nitrous? Whatever you plan to do, that would dictate which sub-forum to hang out at.

The final goal is to be twin turbo, we will see how the bank holds up as i go through the process.

With that being said, If somebody says the ls works better with twins, a procharger, or nitrous then i will head in that direction, I am not set in stone as im just gathering info on what parts to buy and what to stay away from.

The LSx platform does great in any of those applications. It's just all about the combination of parts. I really love Procharged setups, but the majority go the turbo route.
