Re: My friends turbo del sol dyno (SkoundrelUSA)
That's shabby? I don't know much about turbo at all, but i'm getting an LS swap later on. My idea is to just get the regular bolt-ons like I/H/E and when I want more power, go Turbo. I was wondering if its a better idea to just save for a Turbo.
Oh yea, how much did he pay for the whole turbo kit?
Nice set up though

IMHO there is no point to buy I/H if you plan on running turbo a little further down the road. I would just buy a K&N drop-in filter and settle with that for now. You can get exhaust, but depending on how much power your going for, depends on what size piping you want to go with. Either way, i would get 2.5" and youll be fine. Save up and boost the **** out of the LS! Also, your best bet would be to gather up some of the best parts and piece together your own kit. Usually a lot less expensive, depending on how many brand new parts you go with. good luck bro.

well you could get exhaust and a Cold Air Intake (not the short ram). When you go turbo, you could use the CAI as a charge pipe.

Re: (ralphie14)
looks like a nice setup, inline pro, greddy type s, tial wg..
a/f is very flat . what kind of timing is he running? and what management? just curious.. i love the paint color of the car too.

Just something to think about...</TD></TR></TABLE>
and i did 234/202 in 90* weather on 10 psi. there are a bunch of factors that effect power, maybe you are running more timing, maybe exhaust sizes are different... either way all of the #'s are in the correct ballpark
