Best turbo engine?
#42
Stay with what you have until its done for then start fresh, no need to waste a good engine. I'd say test that GT-91 on engine and see what it can do before doing anything, but on the other hand you know that you can never get enough boost

How much boost will a LS2 block handle with aftermarket cylinder heads?
I'm thinking of just throwing this GT91 on the forged LS2 I have now. How bad am I going to hate that? A nice LSX block with 6 bolt heads will top 15K. I don't know if I need that much for a mostly street truck. Maybe I have too much turbo? I would like to stroke this thing but also want it to be reliable. I'm putting 16-17 psi to the block now with no issues. I'm worried about the trans holding up to anymore too. It is a built RPM trans with billet output shaft. It has work flawless too. Would like to have it freshened and maybe converter re-stalled. Freshen up this engine with thicker deck heads and see what happens.

Theres a guy around here who pushed 25psi and a 100 shot on top of his. It finally caught up with him this summer, after a few years of abuse. I say go for it bet it'll work out fine.
