Default Ls Turbo Help

First of all where can i find a good Turbo for a 95 pretty much-stock LS at a fair price..cause i been searching and there are few price different on DRAG and REV these are the two i want..for those who bought DRAG or REV turbo kit before, is it complete, i mean im on a budget too..i dont want to spend 3gs and find out it will not work or cannot be installed completely because i need more parts or something...give me some parts that i will be expecting to be missing, like bolts, hoses, etc.....so i can add it to my budget...

they are both very complete kits, but are merely meant for low boost only due to their poor fuel management. in my opinion anthing over 6psi will require bigger injectors and some sort of fuel computer such as hondata or if your on a tight budget an safc will get you by for a little while. also minor machine work to the oil pan is required

T88 is the best turbo for this engine. I swear. JK. You have to be a little more specific. Asking for a "good" turbo is not going to get you very many answers. A good turbo for this engine will differ in many people's eyes. Do some more research. A lot of people are on budgets too, but you don't want to cheap out on this kind of stuff. My personal suggestion. Figure out where you want your power band. Spec out a turbo from there. Give a Rev-hard dealer a call and see if you can get something from them in kit form, with a turbo to your specs. Ditch the fmu and inline pump. Pick up a used hondata 2B and find a tuner local to you. Slap that kit on and happy boosting. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.

After you determine your power requirement, search the FI classified section. You can put together your own kit, and save!

I was in your shoes about 2 years ago. I bought a drag kit and it was fine for boosting at 7lbs for a while, but I always wanted more. I would piece together a kit, that way you get everything you want and nothing you dont. In the end it will be worth it
