Turbo Ls1
Anyone ever put a turbo on their ls1 swapped thirdgen? I just finished the swap and have a FULLY BUILT 4l60e with a 3.42 8.5 inch rear end and have a 67mm turbo, 38mm waste gate, and a big BOV laying around...

I don't think too many people have done forced induction yet with the LSx swap in these cars, but you'd probably have better luck searching through the LTx/LSx section of the board here. but we're always anxious to see one

Re: Turbo Ls1
Look foward to see pics of the build. How did you mount the torque arm on the 8.5?
