Default Re: Turbo Kit

Guys, we have 5.7 LITER motors. That's a ton of displacement. Our engines will flow enough gas that turbo lag (a function of how long it takes to spin the turbo up to ~120K RPMs, in addition to pressurizing all the piping) will be minimal. If you floored your truck at 40mph, the lag wouldn't be any longer than how long it takes to downshift to 2nd gear. Plus you're not going to loose any of your current power, so you'll still have the massive torque from our motor for lower rpms with the turbo accentuating the top end.
