To All Turbo LT1's How much power are you putting down? With what turbo kit? and any other mods??? I am in the market for an LT1 Camaro and now I'm thinking of making it turbo.

Sup Skinnies!
with a custom intercooled single turbo 355 LT1, mildly ported heads/intake and a $hitty cam I pulled a best of 561 on pump gas at about 10 PSI. With a larger throttle body, turbo cam, and alchy, I fiigure 620 easily.

General rule of them for a turbo car or any car, how much power you want to make is how much your willing to spend. Some of these sets up making 700+ at the wheels are not cheap at all. But you can be smart and get some stuff used and what not, save some cash.

Jim is now running a twin-turbo setup and seeing north of 800+ rwhp I believe. I'd email Larry at Speed and I'm sure he would get your project started in the right direction.

Jordon Musser dynoed 660rwhp at 12psi on pump gas. 383 LT1 with a T88. Never dynoed it on race gas but figured 800-850rwhp at around 21psi and 1000+rwhp at 30psi. He outran a 1000+hp Supra on the freeway before taking the car apart.

I think they're talking about sleeper's site. I've got the pics somewhere.
No idea what mine makes b/c it's never seen a dyno. Street tuning is where it's at and dyno numbers don't mean ****.
Old pic, but it gets the point across
Another junk LT1
Don't even ask about turbo or cam specs.
