    " Mahle 5.3 flat top forged pistons,
    " gen 4 rods,
    " 862 heads,
    " .625 max lift springs,
    " FAST LSXR 102mm Intake,
    and some other stuff. Whereas I'm stuck on what camshaft and lifters I should choose
    My goal is to make as much HP N/A as possible.
    The options for the camshaft that I have are :
    1) "COMP Cams 54-602-11 Big Mutha' Thumpr"
    2) "Comp Cams 54-703-11 Stage 2 Thumpr Cam"
    3) "Competition Cams 54-408-11 XFI RPM"
    4) "GM Performance Parts Camshaft, LS6 Camshaft, Hydraulic Roller, Lift 0.550/0.550"
    These are the cams and only these I can get for free from a friend, the question is which one would allow me to make the most HP.

    I’m embarrassed Richard, all this time I’ve owned a turbo foxbody I have always had problems such as boost, vacuum, exhaust leaks. I’ve tried my best to find and correct them but they are always there. Somehow last season my 7875 wouldn’t see positive boost on the 351, holley screen until mid 5k rpm.

      Can you hear it spooling? If not, it's probably an exhaust leak. If you hear it spooling, then it might be a boost leak. Try to get a turbo inlet adapter to pressurize the system with an air compressor. Fill it slowly and listen for leaks. Don't over pressure it! 20lbs is more than enough to find any leaks. Hope this helps, and best of luck!

Every test I saw on RUclips they stayed under 15lbs trying to check. I’m sure I have a leak somewhere but I haven’t been able to find the main ones.

    Hey Richard, Richard here. I made 541hp/550tq on 10psi with a t4 s475, LC9 with 706 heads (10.5:1 cr). Ss2 with pac 1219 springs I don’t have any boost until 3300+rpm and this is in a manual c4 corvette. I would be happy (maybe) with around 650-700whp. Do you have a recommendation on a smaller turbo to get me around 650-700whp with better spool up or should I run it and turn up the boost?

      On my setup, I started with a ts45 . It would boost creap when I started out and was afraid to run higher boost . I changed to a ts60 and now have full control whether I run on the 9 psi gate spring or tune the controller to command 18lbs. Big gate for the win ! Blowoff valve is a luxury and makes cool sounds , but not absolutely nessasary to even have . Some even think a blowoff valve is counterproductive . Stick shift builds are harder to keep in boost w a blowoff valve and I'm suspect of the idea the leftover boost pressure in the intake pipe has any damaging effect on the turbo . Its not like the turbo is still trying to build boost once you close the throttle . Its just a split second of pressure that finds a way to bleed down pretty quickly . The turbo doesn't have anything driving it once the blades close so its not banging against the blades for long at all and immediately begins to equalize.

    The constant worry about a 20 hp loss below 3500 rpm is deranged. Who is driving at WOT at 2000 rpm? This combo is not over cammed or turboed. It is under injected and should be wound out to at least 7500 rpm.

    Well Richard we need the approximate cost of this so-called first time turbo build. I think the big-ticket item is the Holley HP management system required to make everything safe and user-friendly. I know it is hard to price out the hot side but wastegates blow off valves ,injectors and sensers adds quite a bit to the cost. Without looking everything up I'm guessing $7,500 minimum?

    • @timweb1510

      Things sure add up quick sir. I have the Holley hp and they seem to raise the price every year. It comes with a few pressure sensors and you want the NTK O2 sensor for boosted applications over the Bosch which is inferior. Lowdoller motor sports has sensors a little cheaper than the SSI Holley sensors that used to be $100 each. Did you write down the prices or bare bones kits like cx racing or parts needs from VS.

      There is always a loss of efficiency in the equation. You may be reaching the limits of head flow, valve and chamber geometry, fuel system or ignition limitation, or plain old thermal inefficiency due to a poorly cooled charge. Running on pump fuel will also often necessitate running far lower timing than optimal.
      All that said, 670hp is a lot better than 415 wouldn't you agree?!
