    Needing guidance on where to start (Atlanta area)

    I’ve been giving some pretty serious consideration to a nitrous, or preferably turbo LQ build for my Silverado.

    It’s a 99 2500 with an unoppened LQ4/4L80E and the stock 8 lug 12 bolt 3.73 rear.

    I’m not looking to run sub-10’s on a prepped track. I just want something that has enough punch to break the rest of the welds on the broken driver seat frame so I have a reason to replace it with a bucket.

    Are there any local resources/reputable Speed shops/dynos/engine guys (preferably LS guys) in the Newnan/PTC vicinity?

    I’d love to actually go pay for a baseline dyno run, get some honest numbers, and get some feedback and realistic expectations about how fast I want to go and how much I’m willing to spend to do it safely.

    Vengeance Racing is near you. About 30 miles north Atl in Cumming GA.


    Stock internals can handle about 100-150 shot, after that rings need to be gapped, injectors, timing, and internals need to be upgrade as well as tuning to make it safe. Otherwise you're just looking at how long till you grenade the block.

    98 Formula
    06 duramax

    Just my opinion so take it as such but that's a heavy ass truck to dump all that time and money in to go 12's. Make it sound and look good and save a boat load of time and money.
