Nitrorocket,
Do you have a link for your build up?
Thanks

Here is the link to my Lateral G buildup. Some stuff has changed for more power, but this setup made 750 RWHP on 93 octane, I am now making over 800 rwhp with larger turbos and more boost. I am running 18.5 PSI on 93 octane! ;)

Feel free to ask questions, I should have an answer. :_paranoid

Nitrorocket,
Can you pls give me some info what kind of turbo /what size, wastegates, blow off valve and what kind of and size piping I should be looking for? How about fuel set up?
Remember mine is a stock 2001 LS1 and dont want to touch the engine.
Thanks man.

Are you doing twins or single??

67PTCAMARO 07-31-2006 11:27 AM

Twins. And I'm thinkung to mount them low. whats the solution for the oil return?
Thanks

How low are you talking?? If you mount them to low you have to run an electric oil scavange pump, this add reliability issues, noise and clutter. You will need to have the turbos mounted at least 6" above crank centerline and have them return into the front timing chain cover, NOT the oil pan! :thumbsup:

Nitro, I send you a e-mail. I hope you got it.
Thanks man

Why Not The Oil Pan??????

With the oil pan drains, it is possible to have drainback issues on de-acceleration.

That makes sense, but I've seen many kits drain back to the pan, even on the LSX motors. In fact I've only seen one that didn't, and they used a boss in the block just above the pan.

All the old-school small block use the pan also. Prochargers (non self-contained) use the pan also, although they recommend lining up with a main cap to reduce windage and oil drain issues from slosh.
