LS1 and Turbos...
LS1 and Turbos...
Ok guys... Input needed PLEASE!! I have been thinking about turbocharging my 2001 Camaro SS. I know where I want the turbo, I have PLENTY of room for a very big turbo, and I can still KEEP my SLP Long TUbe Headers doing so... I heard it was better to put jsut 1 big turbo on the LS1's...
I was wondering waht size turbo is usually good? I was thinking maybe somethign similar to the T-Types or GN's but I dont know what size those are ... I have a friend that said 'Go with a T88... its massive!' but again Dont know if that would suit the application well... I was also thinking I can make room for ANOTHER turbo, and run 2... like a Twin Turbo LS1... (which would be frickin wicked...) IF I went with 2, what would you reccomend?? two T4's??
Basically need some input, realistic outcomes, etc. before I do anything... the very first things I am doing is a rear and (12 bolt) since its a 6 speed, and tranny rebuild and putting lighter flywheel with a better clutch in it. I wont turbo till next winter....
Oh yeah 1 more thing... I am debaitng on turbo(s) OR heads and cam.... Whatcha guys think??

Come on guys it's very easy to just slap an 88mm turbo on and go without worrying about the fuel system, motor, or anything!!! Hell I just ordered a PT-106 for my little stock longblock 3.8-liter V6 and with the 2800 stall converter I have it should spool up very fast!!! Maybe I'll use a little NAWS to help
