how much hp can i make with a stock Ls and a gt35 turbo? i just got one for free and want to try run it. Can anyone tell me what i need for some decent hp?

 

g2ic.com got good rite up on turbo's.... also faq here has stuff. do some research

http://www.beesandgoats.com/boostfaq/g2icturbo.html start there come back when u understand that

 

Man on a stock LS motor i would reccomend using a smaller turbo. By the time it spools up it will be about time to shift, cause the LS does not rev high enough from the factory to create a usable power band with that size turbo. Sorry man just my opinion. But keep that turbo and build the block and the head or get a Vtec head.

 

what about a b20 motor? would it kick *** with the gt35 turbo? or should i just buy a vtec head? any opinions out there...

 

lsv turbo and b20v turbo is almost the same thing bro b20 is the same as the ls but bigger bore

 

I would turn around and sell that turbo. You're not going to use it to its full potential. Ls motor's are not rev happy. There rod bolts are the same as a D series. I wouldn't trust them for anything at high rev's. Ive got a garret 60 Trim 60 a/r on my stock ls and I see full boost around 4500ish on 10psi. Deffinantly ditch that turbo and get something smaller that will suit your build better. Just my 2cents.

 

so whats a pretty good size snail for a b series? might be planning on going gsr b16 or b20. opinion please..

This is the turbo im currently running, its good to about 475whp or so. They are priced fairly good, they are not ball bearing though, they are journal bearing. I like mine, spooling wise its not all that laggy and such. Just something along that range. No need for a gt35r for what you want.

 

As Timmy said, a 60 or 57 trim.

 

pistons,rods,springs and retainers would help,come on guy if you want a reliable build you have to build it right.
