Default Hey guys... What about this turbo??

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...49145

As you can see, its on Ebay. The seller has very good feedback. Would it be good for a 95 ls ? I already have a Drag 3 mani, 28 x 6 x 3 FMIC, Rev hard IC pipping.
Just want like 250-275 hp without going over 8 psi (stock internals). I'm newbie, so any coments will be appreciated.

sorry to bust your bubble but theres no way that with that youll get even 250 on stock internals.

Bec of the size of the turbo, or what? Too big?? Too small? Bad combination?
Please be more specific. When I say that I just want like 250 hp and 8 psi is bec right now I'm on a budget and I dont have the $$ to replace internals, so I have to be conservative.
If I wait to have more $$ available to spend in this, I know I will never get to do it (always something happens that make you spend the $$ you are saving).
The only way I know is going to work for me is to start with a simple set up and grow it. You all know that once you start, you will be wanting more power

Agreed, That turbo isn't junk at all, just not what you're going to want to achieve your goal. Just try searching for ls turbo setups and you should find some good ideas.

thats a stock svo mustang/murkur turbo.

not going to get you over 200hp on stock boost. I would do a t3/t4 with a low trim, maybe h-3 or something. Whatever you do, at least get a t4 front houseing turbo. And the drag mani needs a t3 turbine, fyi.
