i know its a bit much but considering a new car would run around 17-20k i figure i have a deal one more thing what do you think the chances of this setup hitting the 300hp mark?
please pick a larger turbo that uses a T3 flange. You'll have a MUCH easier time getting a manifold that has a T3 flange instead of the T25 flange, and that turbo is too damn small dude. It will operate inefficiently. Go for a T3 Super 60

yeah once i posted i read some other post think im going to take the advice and go with a T3 im just going to purchase another manifold and t3 from a diffrent site
The only turbo manifold that you can use with that ball bearing T28 is from Hahn Racecraft. There are about 3 turbo manifolds that I can think of right now that would be easier / cheaper to obtain for what you are wanting to do man. If you need any help in turbo / turbo parts selection, or tuning, you can also seek help on my site, see sig.

yeah i was poking around and i was going with the turbo kit from import performance but with all the advice im going to go with the setup jtuner offers its a t3 setup ill just make my own inter cooler setup no way im paying $1000 for theirs and info on that turbo setup seems decent produces 180 on virtually stock motor at 5psi im looking for a bit more of course..
as far as intercoolers go, i'd go with an intercooler from Johnny Racecar. How I am working out the piping on my setup is buying an ebay polished pipe kit, and a few extra bends from Summit Racing, and cutting / welding everything myself at our shop. You can do that for under $400 as opposed to a grand.

awesome im going to look into that right now let ask you about inline fuel pumps rather then an in tank high flow pump what would you do with that? also know of any hp rebuild kits that are cheaper then $800 or can i use just a basic stock rebuild kit throw in some better rings and connecting rods i would like to run between 10-14psi if possiable ?
also whats the website for johnny racer tried a search found nothing sorry but thanks for the help
http://www.johnnyracecar.com. Click on Products. You are best with one of their 6" intercoolers. I wouldn't waste time with an inline fuel pump, they tend to wear out the stock pump. The best way to go is to get a Walbro 255 lph intank pump for the LT1. the best way to go is from http://www.autoperformanceengineering.com. part #F20000169. install kit #27. with a good tune, you can run 14 psi on stock bottom end with the proper fuel mods. but that good tune does not include an FMU or SAFC. You need to go Megasquirt, E-manage, or Hahn's Port Fueler system.

hey i was thinking of buying the setup importperformance has to offer it cost about $350 but says i can program the rate of fuel to the amount of boost and has a rev limiter and such is that pretty much the same thing your saying?
