boosting an ls, help me pick a snail
so after recently getting my little d15 boosted ive decided i want something bigger so i invested in an ls swap.
setup includes 3" turbo back no res no muffler, log mani, 2" hot pipes, 6" drag fmic, 2.5" cold pipes... i want to make somewhere around 260whp
car will be daily driven so i was debating on a .60 .63 t3, i want full spool around 3500rpm or so. also thought about a t3/to4e .50 .63.
any suggestions?

Re: boosting an ls, help me pick a snail (b18sihatch)
kinda looking * > $500 range, low budget project here and also will pick up something used/needs rebuild
i dont want something super large, im pretty sure im just going to see what comes up between a .60 .63 t3 and a t3/to4e even though they are fairly different.
any last bits of input?

i mean i dotn wanna pay 500 for something that needs rebuilding, maybe 250 at the most... idk. ive seen people actually use .48 .60s on stock ls and put out ~220whp on 8psi... there is a turbo t bird i can yank the snail off for probably 100, then $130 or so for blaastperformance to rebuild. i wonder if ill get lucky and have it be the .60 .63 on there. its 5spd didnt they have the bigger ones?

well mine is still in the works...i drove it untuned at 5psi and it hit pretty nice lol...but that was with the log manifold and 2.5" d/p i just switched to a top mount and 3" d/p...once i get it all hooked up and tuned at RLZ i'll let u know
