Has anyone used the turbo's they have on Ebay? I'm new to the turbo deal, but from when I drag raced I had the chance to see the power they make. The old chev truck I'm building would be a good candidate for a LS motor and turbo. I can fab up what I need to, but I won't have the money to do an all out build considering what it's going to cost to get this thing on the road. I've been thinking, dangerous I know, but 5.3's are a lot easier to find around here and cheaper, and with the truck manifolds I could build a pretty good set up using a decent mileage 5.3, stk bottom end, with the right cam, blow through carb, and MSD it wouldn't break the bank. Down the road I could gather up enough stuff to build something better. I could maybe come up with a good used turbo from someone that went bigger, but ebay had wastegates and other things I would need at a good price. This 1st build will be a learning experience anyway. Plus I would need a lot of help from you guys. With a single turbo, what size exh would you run since I guess it'd be a single pipe? This will be a pump gas build so is a inner cooler mandatory? Just want some good power with a build that is not the run of the mill hotrod.
