So maybe the title wasn't all that great but hey,got you to red this thread didn't ?.....well anyway I know there are alot of us on here who would rather go fast then ^up. Me persoanlly I don't mind going either way depending on the truck and it's condition. But anyway I was thinking today and wondered if any of you feel the same. I seem to have the fetish with BOOST perticularly with "TURBOS" ....And I was wondering if anyone else here felt the same way them them as I do . I wish I had the money or else I'd have me a turbo block in the works as we speak. But that's all in the future....but as for the rest of my boost hungry friends,what is your ideal turbo truck ???

I would love a purpose built low compression high boost turbo V8 in my truck. Definitely need a HUGE front mounted intercooler, HUGE full ball bearing turbo, and Motec computer system

There really is nothing like boost, turbo boost that is
There are quite a few benefits to turbo's rather than superchargers and I would LOVE someone to come out with an affordable turbo kit for a Chevy 5.3+. Unfortunately I dont think this will happen anytime soon, especially when considering that the 5.3 has been around for at least 4 years now.

 

i hope to be building my dream turbo set up by spring and i want to do it with the factory computer.

 

You could go with this setup

Lingenfelter 427 Twin Turbo package

 

There is only one way to put that package...........SICK....And if only I had the money....

Than again why go out and buy a kit with motor when you can have the fun of bulding your own on your own budget ?!?!?!?! I choose build my own and hey 700Hp sounds good but why not shoot for 900 ??

~BB~

 

700hp is damn weak for that set up. i would love to get ahold of a couple of their header set up's i bet they wouldn't sell just that part.

 

I'm sure they can get alot more out of it but, that is a daily driver type setup for people that want lot of power in a civilized vehicle.

Depends on what turbos they're using also. I think they're using garrett ball bearing water cooled turbos. I don't know what size though.

I wonder if they'd just sell the manifolds, oiling, and water cooling setup.
