The ls2 truck ran 13.0@105 on 16s (now both on 20s) I was a bit surprised how hard the 5.3 pulled it for only 5 psi.. turbo ftw!

what size turbo?
i rem when the STS kits first come around the rule of thumb was 125-150rwhp gain from 5-6psi.

before i put the Borgwarner on mine i did a NA pass with a 15.2@96? then on 5psi it went a 13.9@104? but these big turbos dont shine at low boost, they suck.
when i had the 60mm on mine it was goin 13.2@104 on 5psi.
