Default ls boost/ what turbo

hey i have a stock ls motor on my ek, and plan to piece together a turbo kit. im probably going to keep the motor stock other than ls stage 2 turbo cams from crower,valve springs, retainers, and port and polish. other than that everything is goin to be stock. i want to convert to obd1 and run a turbo program. i plan to have atleast 250 to the wheels, but am having trouble deciding what turbo to get. it will be daily drivin, but taken to the tracks as well. i want good horsepower, but am willing to sacrifice a little lag for the extra horsepower. any suggestions on what turbo to get. oh yah should i stay with the ls tranny, or is there a better b series tranny to use for boost. thanks

I had a T3/T4e 57 Trim with a stage 3 wheel on the exhaust side and it just lagged too much in Auto Xing.

You can have 250whp without the head work. Although the head work is going to change your powerband for the best. I would recommend one of the three with .63 A/R turbine housings. These will make 250whp easy but leave room for more power.

* Precision GT3251E
* Precision SC5031E
* Garrett T3/T04E 50 Trim

There are more than enough Precision and Garrett dealers on here to talk with.
