Re: ls turbo build

Cool build. Just got my LQ4/4L80e last week. Debating now on H/C/I or cam and turbo. Goal is less power than yours is going to be. Can't wait to see the results.

Re: ls turbo build

Looks like the exhaust manifold on the passenger side will not work with this ac bracket... will any other manifolds work?

Re: ls turbo build

Pretty sure Wasted used a Vette manifold (ZOMGVETTEPARTS!!!) on the passenger side with a vband flange welded on.

Sorry Wasted but couldn't resist using the ZOMGVETTEPARTS!!! from your build thread!

Re: ls turbo build

I didn't go back and re-read your build, but are you planning on running A/C? I'm curious as to turbo placement and if the C6 manifolds would all me to run something like a Vinatage Air setup.
