Default Need help with my new turbo kit

So I have a 2003 silverado Ss with a LQ9, a set of L92 heads, a 601/610 236/242 112 LSA comp cam, 4L80e and and a edge 3200 stall.. I just got a trick turbo kit off here the turbo is a Lil small. It's just a 62 trim with a .96AR the guy said it made 430-440rwhp on 9lbs with a 6.0 and 4l80e and was at full boost at 3200rpm... I new I needed more fuel so I got twin 255 pumps and 80 lbs injectors and a hobbs switch.. Wat I want to know is wat else I will need besides a tune and how much do u guys think this will make with my set up.. I know my cam is not good for boost but I was going to spay so I had it put in and decided to go turbo

seems you got it covered. thought i had a bad turbo cam too, decided to leave it and making good power w/it. turbo will spool fast as hell, but will probably run out on the top end. you can always go bigger later.

Gonna be a fun street truck.
Turbo will spool hard but run out if air up top.
I wouldn't worry about the cam right. Unless u just have a spare laying around.

How much boost do you plan on running, and what rpm do you spin it to?

You might have to end up short shifting it. But there is one way to find out!

Are you getting it dyno tuned?

Like everyone else is saying, you're pushing it with that small of a turbo. You need a 72-76mm.

Need to know more info about the turbo... "62 trim" and ".96 a/r" doesn't say anything about the size and capability of the turbo. A Magnum T76 is a "56 trim" compressor. Trim is nothing more the the wheels induser diameter/exduser diameter.

What brand is it? What is the compressor wheel inducer size? and what turbine wheel does it have? Those will tell you what kinda power it's capable of. FWIW those power numbers he gave you are really low for a 6L and 9lbs of boost...
