My little turbo LS1....

http://www.forcefedfab.com/images/PI...a/turbota.html

It runs insane. Im still testing it out as I go...1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th gear traction limited, at 4 psi. First night out we had it at 12 psi and it was crazy, but too much without doing some tuning first.

I will be having it on a wideband to make sure whats going on with the fueling. AFter some bigger injectors and tuning the boost will go up.

Re: My little turbo LS1....

yea it runs under the K member, no problem. After I have some fun with it I'll throw in a tubular K member and route everything above

Re: My little turbo LS1....

What system is this or is it a custom setup? Did you re-locate the battery to the back hatch area? Also, what kind of turbo(and size) and what kind of fuel pump/injectors are you going to be using?

Thanks.

Re: My little turbo LS1....

Yes the battery is in the spare tire compartment now.

The turbo is a custom Garrett T72, still running stock injectors. Only fuel upgrades are a Walbro intank pump and a FMU. I know I needd some bigger injectors so I can run more boost hehe
