Default stock ls, 60 trim, arp studs, 12lbs?

Couple people say go for it, couple people say don't. Mods in sig, I know my injectors are being close to maxed. Gonna guess 270-300whp with this set up.

Thoughts?

If I will be alright pushing this power with my set up, what I've read about ls motors, its fine.

Plenty of LS motors run that power level just fine. And plenty blow up at that level or less. A good tuner will be the biggest factor, and a little luck wouldn't hurt. What EMS?

neptune. I'm not sure what I have decided, but can you tell me what specifics I should asking from my tuner when tuning the car for 10lbs, and possibly 12? I'm think 12 af ratio, and not sure on the timing.

The final timing values & air fuel ratios really should be determined by your tuner.

I am assuming you have an aftermarket map sensor, if you don't your going to need one such as a hondata/omnipower 2.5 bar: http://www.phearable.net/shoppingcar...ies-p-296.html

You could run 14-18 psi with your setup. It all depends on how efficiently it performs.
Your tuner will ultimately set the boost where he feels is the best setting...

I have personally tuned more stock turbo ls setups that I can count at 260-300 whp on 93 octane and not one has had an issue.

Thanks for the reply. I have a stock map sensor, and i'm glad you mentioned that because I know I can't run any more than 11 psi I believe on the stock one. What can you tell me about the motorola map sensors, are they trash? I think I read they are a pain to install.
