Just wanted to take a minute to introduce myself and my project truck. My name is Randy and I live in Alberta, Canada.

I recently bought a 2000 Chev Silverado 1500 RCSB and over the next few weeks I’ll be putting a turbo on it. In stock form, it went 15.41 at 97.5mph in the quarter. My goal is eventually to run 11.50’s.

I’ve ordered a cast 7875 turbo and a 44mm wastegate from VS Racing that just showed up. I’m already in the process of building a manifold to mount the turbo.

I’ll be using HP Tuners to do the tuning and plan on doing all the work myself. My local track opens in about 6 weeks, so my goal is to have the turbo installed and functioning in time to make the opening day at the track. Future upgrades planned are a 4L80E swap and possibly a rear axle upgrade.

I’ll keep this thread updated with pics and video as I make progress.

Thanks,
Randy Engler
