X2. My first motor was an LS turbo with a GSR tranny. Then I boosted it with a ram horn mani, t3/t4 turbo and made 227whp @ 7 psi. My best et was 13.1 with 240 whp. I tried dipping into the 12s by turning up the boost to 13 psi and made 276, but no traction and ended doing worse and blowing up the motor

GSR is good boost too. Can probably make 300+ stock with a good turbo kit. (i knew one that made 304whp @ 14 psi bone stock GSR with a Peakboost top mount and a GT35)
