Default LSx Turbo Systems

To All:

I came across this website:

http://hpperformance.com/gmturbosystems.htm

Does anyone know anything about their Turbo Systems?

Does anyone know anyone else who sells a Turbo Kit for the LSx?

Thanks,

Ty

As I am sure you already know, the kits will be dependent on the vehicle it is going in. What kind of car are you putting it in??

Stang's Bane

'69 Camaro
LS2 or LS7 (Don't know yet which one)

Anything else?

I would really like to find several very complete kits to choose from if possible. It doesn't look like "Banks", is going to put one out for these engines. I know several venders on this site deal in turbo's, but at this time, I would like to focus on kits. It seems to be the best cost effective way to do one, without a lot of fab time.

never seen a kit for that car with that engine. I'm doing a twin turbo LS2 in the Chevelle and am using Nelson Racing headers. They will fit great on your car, but there is no complete kit I'm aware of, you have to fab it up. Jeff Schwartz also has/will have turbo exhaust manifolds for the LS engines, but again no complete kit. If you get a kit for a late-model F body, or Vette or GTO you will not be able to use most of it, as all the piping fits only that particular car.

We can sell a nearly complete kit,
with a ready to run LS2 or LS7 twin turbo engine, we've done both.
But fitment to the car is needed for intercooler plumbing and final exhaust work. Which we can do as well, but you'd need to ship the car here.
I know I can beat anyones price on Garrett turbos.
Thanks

I should be able to do pretty well for myself, since I work for Honeywell, who owns Garrett. But I should give you a call to verify that.

Jeff:

Thanks for the post.

I will definitely give you a call, I would be very interested in what you would come up with and/or recommend.

Thanks again.

6.0 truck manifolds are another option if your on a budget. I have seen 1,000 rwhp with these . You would need to build the hot pipes that would be very easy .
