should have waited to buy a ZO6 rather than a stingray if you want 600+ HP those run 11.3 with 650 HP/TQ but getting that out of a V6 would cost so much it would not even be worth it, and it would be stretched so tight it would run for hundreds of thousands of miles like it would with bolt ons.

im trying to get a turbo into my car.. however I need some info if any of you could help.. How much can I push safely until I can get forged internals? also any kits available now? and lastly should I just build a kit myself and get a custom manifold for the turbo? I want it front mounted on the manifold... not to mention that the exhaust manifold for my car is different from the 2010 that Gretchen has... its a single pipe that comes out both sides...

we make a bolt-on kit for your car
http://www.fabberge.com/chevrolet/ca...turbo-kit.html

12 psi on a stock engine is pretty safe to run. makes around 460 rwhp.

I was just about to recommend the IPS kit for the OP. Tats who I'm going to be going with in the coming months. Another way to add some hp would be to run a meth kit and upgrade to a zl1 fuel pump I would think at that point you'd be at least to 500rwhp. That's my personal goal. Maybe fabberege or Gretchen can give us an idea as to what kinda numbers those two mods in hand with a turbo kit can acheive. But I would think at that point you'd at least want forged lower CR pistons and forged rods.

Would a ZL1 fuel pump add more HP without turbo?

No.

Even with the Fabberge turbo kit, you should not need the ZL1 pump unless you plan to upgrade your internals and run higher boost.

How long do these turbos last on a LFX motor?

crc91 · 01-18-2016, 01:19 PM

I would think they should last the life of the car, if maintained and installed properly.

He's gonna take that number, the et., much lower before he's done.

The lfx should handle 12 psi of boost. With bolt ons your should make about 520-545 rwhp
