recently bought a 00' ls and am new to this whole import tuner thing...i mean i know stuff about it but am pretty sure you all know more! i need a list of stuff to do (in order) for going the turbo route, and another if i choose to go the supercharger route. id appreciate the help.

 

Those are two different ways of going about it. If you go supercharging then you can get a nice intake, but if you get turbo you will have no use for an intake. You should decide which you want, how much power you wish to make, then come back with some questions.

 

like he said, it is all about what you want out of the car. how much are you capable on spending on this endeavor? will the car be a daily driver? are you wanting a complete setup, or are you wanting to piece one together yourself? have you done a compression check on the engine to see if it is in good condition? how many miles are on the engine? these are just a few things that you should think about. if you are really looking to go for the forced induction route, you should go over to that forum, since they will be able to better assist you. of course, you don't have to even go that route. maybe you would prefer to go NA and just build up the engine itself. of course, a turbo will own no matter what (in most cases), but it all depends on what you want out of it. like he said, come back with some more specific questions so that you can get some more specific answers.

Search (upper right corner). U'll find all the info u want in there about FI.

My advice is research until u really know what your talking about before you do anything major like going FI in you car. Doing so before you know what your talking about will come back and bite you in the ***.
