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?

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.
