very interested and would love to see where pricing lands. This should essentially be everything needed aside from a tune since factory fueling is good to ~500+ whp, correct?

Correct we don't supply any fueling, tuning, or final exhaust after down pipe.

are there even any fuel upgrade choices for those of us with 2015 5.3s yet aside from different cam lobes? Is the downpipe routed with the intent to line up to a stock exhaust location or is it routed the most convenient/ necessary route to accommodate the crossover?

I NEED this in my life! need pics and details to get sold on the idea

what other fueling upgrades would you want/need? the different fuel lobes are really all you'll need unless you get just completely nuts with it.

Im not sure what the options and limits are, that's the issue and why Im asking. if I leave it stock whats the limit, 500 whp? And whats the cam lobe upgrade worth and if its worth 900 whp, is there a less extreme option in the middle? Obviously I haven't done much research in to this. I was planning on buying a procharger system and running the canned tune and being done with it until I saw a turbo kit potentially being available. The fact that I have a water cooled BB t-78 on the shelf makes the idea even more appealing.

You can go with the new zo6 injectors there bigger and also the mechanical pump on the z06 is also bigger. But I'd wait till I but the motor to throw all that at it.

Thanks for the answer; that's the kind of info im looking for. Are people swapping those components into the 5.3s already?

And on that note, does anyone have any opinion on how a t-78 with a 68mm f-1 wheel and 1.15 AR would be size wise on there fairly potent little 5.3s?I bought the turbo with plans for it to go in my nova but I have specialty insurance on it and they said if I add any power they will subtract any insurance

Down pipe is aimed reward. A small section of pipe would be needed to connect back to the stock exhaust pipe.
