just wanted to see if anyone knew what the volumetric efficiency of the LS1 was stock. Trying to figure out a twin turbo system that would take full advantage of the LS1's potential.

Of course all ls1 will be a little different.. but I know they average around 76-77% :D

Awesome, thanks man. Mow i can figure out a twin turbo setup.

Ok, I should say that Ill be able to say that I can calculate the turbo needs for a single setup, but Id like to try and run a turbo for each bank. For those in the know regarding turbo's and V8's, would I be able to take the flow rate calculated and divide by two to figure out the turbo size comparing against a turbo chart?
