Hi Kristie!
Check out http://www.30th-ta.org
I know that you have the same LS-1 engine that the 1999s have. On this site, I know some people have turbo'ed their cars (30th TAs). I'm not sure if anyone has twin-turbo'ed though. Give them a shot!

Good luck and nice meeting you!

Have a good one,

There is no way that motor will hold up under 19 psi. On pump gas that motor would probably take between 6-8 psi depending on choice of intercooler.
Unless your brother(s) are doing a full-on motor build up, I think they are nuts or your figures are wrong.

if full motor is reconstruct from using only those really expensive parts, thats what hes doing...

A 01 ws6 ta puts out 325 hp. With a 10.5 to 1 comp ratio. Putting 19 psi into it would blow it up. They are better off with a Vortech supercharger @ 6-8 psi. But before you do that get a new rear end. The rear in that car is from a 4 cyl. pick-up (GM is cheap. Thats the glass jaw of that car. If you go much over 380 to 400 hp you will break the rear as per SLP rep. I spoke with. Hope this helps.
