Still working on my LS Boost, Someone told me to get the Garrett t3/60-1 .48 a/r and I was reading some forums and they said I wouldn't be able to reach full boost till about 4500-5000 on 18psi. Here's my goal to push my LS into the 11's in a quarter mile on boost not fake HP like NOS cause it only lasts for so long. Anyways no offense but I wanna be able to get 11's 1/4 mile and about 350 hp. Here is my setup again
B18A1:
9:1 CP
Eagle H Beam
ARP Head Studs
Cometic Head Gasket
Race Port and Polish
XS Power Intake manifold

dont have an Idea for exhaust manifold yet
3" full exhaust
Fidanza Lightweight flywheel forgot how light 9lbs or something with ARP flywheel bolts
F1 Racing STage 4 clutch ARP pressure plate bolts
750cc injectors
Walbro 255 HP fuel pump

Thanks for trying to help but I talked to my tuner he said that the Garrett will work just fine for my goals. I have decided ill stick with the Garrett t3/60-1 .48a/r.
Someone can CLOSE this thread.

Almost positive I stated this before.

Its going to take ANY turbo awhile to make 18 psi. Just varies by size of the turbo.

Oh and BTW I'd ditch the XSPOWER intake mani for a stock one.

And I don't trust F1 clutches, a few of my buddies have had em and they wear down in 3,000 - 5,000 miles.

Good luck tho

Ya well money doesnt grow on trees thanks for the heads up but ill take my chances. Not everyone drives the same and I got the mani for cheap so why not right??? I hate XS Power anyways and didnt realize I bought an XS power Manifold until I seen it was stamped on the top of the manifold. So I said w/e we will see how this works out. The turbo I have choosen has been said that it has a powerband similar to the gsr's and spools quick and .48a/r with 3" DP will make it spool even faster but I sacrifice some top end Power but thats okay. This is my setup and I hope it does good for me and learn from it. Who closes threads anyways cause this THREAD is finished, I dont need anymore help or tips. Thanks for everything though.
