You need to be a little bit more specific about your turbo setup. What kind of turbo? Front mount? What type of manifolds? Fill us in..

What KredZ28 is saying is that you need to provide details.

Like, what kind of turbo? What kind of boost? Air intercooling, water/air intecooling, methanol injection, or simple hot-air?

the amount of detail in the question you ask...will determine the amount of detail in the answer you get...basically alls we know is you have a stock LT1 with a custom stainless turbo setup and you want to run 7psi...that doesnt help anything. If your like me and running 7psi from a 70mm..thats one thing..and your looking at around 450hp..or if your like my friend who had a 101mm turbo...7psi..would be a hell of alot more than 450...you have to be very specific. Also, intercooler makes a difference along with anything else you say...help us out a lil...
