Default Boost Options

Does anyone have any suggestions on boost options for my TBSS? I was thinking about a STS rear mounted turbo system.

Are you AWD? What Trans do you have? Daily driver? Why do you want to go so fast?(roll racing, quarter mile, autocross)

Yes it's a daily driver. Its a RWD with the 4L65E. I have long tube headers (no cats) with a True Dual Borla (XR-1 mufflers). Lv4 trans rebuild kit w/ 3000 stall. Cold Air intake, ECU reflash, PRC ported heads, comp cams (not sure on specs) valves, springs, and retainers. I like to go to the track when I get the opportunity.

I loved my STS Turbo kit worked great on my LS1 Firehawk

Are there any other internal modifications that I would need in order for this to work, or are the stock internals I have remaining suffice? I don't even know much about the reliability of LS2s in modified applications.

Another +1 for a TVS, instant boost off idle makes a fun daily driver! The LS2 will take the power no problem, it's your tranny you have to worry about.

Sorry, I just saw that you have a lv4 trans. You should be ok with that.
