ok well i just got a 1996 and up ls mototr with ls tranny and im looking to build a turbo kit on my own for it before i throw it in my ex coupe... what kind of turbo should i buy that would push past 15 psi and what all do i need for a basic turbo set up ive been looking around and reading alot but whats the differnce between internally westgate or non westagte and dry and liquid cooled? what all shoudl i do to the motor as well to build it up to be a daily driver with turbo so its reliable also
 
unless you're going to a standalone management system, 10.6 psi is your map sensor's limitations, and thus, your turbo system's limitations

nearly all turbos on the market will push 15 psi.

non-wastegate = you're going to blow up.
internal = wastegate is on the turbo
external = wastegate is on the manifold

dry = dry
liquid cooled = has water passages to tie into your coolant system

reliability = fuel management and tuning
