Looking for options on shops to build hot/cold side for single turbo.
Looking recommendations for shops in the south LA/TX/ARK area to build a hot/cold side for my 17' SS. I've never really entertained a turbo system due to the 10k cost but , my friend gave me two brand new bullseye 73/87 batmowheel turbos, two JGS precision 60mm BOV's and wastegates. They are too big to run as twins but I think one would be perfect. Thank you for any input.

There have been a couple of guys who have done single turbo setups on our cars. I had one. I was not a fan. There were a lot of compromises. I now have a twin setup that I built and can honestly say that it is an extreme kit with no compromises but the car is now heavily modified.

Engine Masters did a video recently with low-buck turbo 5.2L LS using hooker cast headers. Maybe an option.. made 700+hp

I saw those, not sure if they would even bolt up to the LT heads. The turbo I have is to big to go into that position anyways. It does seem like a great option for some. Thank for the suggestion.

Fitting a turbo that is big enough to breath well, without cutting the car is tough. Either the turbo will be kinda undersized or the exhaust will, but either way the car is gonna choke (power dependent). Unless you et into some oval tubing and some tight pie cuts. I'm not saying that it cant be done, Just saying that it is not going to be cheap or easy. |

Turbo_RORO. Where in Florida are you? I'm in Jacksonville. If you don't mind me asking how much did your setup set you back?

I'm in destin. Been helping clean up PCB so I was late to respond. Honestly it wasn't too much. But I do all of my own work so it's a little different.

Glad to hear you are good. So much damage. When you get caught up PM me about actual cost and if you would be willing to build me a set up.

Thanks for the input guys , but the turbo I have is simply to big to do what I want with it. I had the option to swap them to a smaller s300 frame , but that would still be too big in a twin set up. I would have to do a fender or bumper exit exhaust and I’m not going to do that haha. Pretty sure I going with a F1A-94 after much consideration.

Rear-mount, no intercooler, methanol.
I can see the potential boost leaks from here
