TURBOCHARGER


Recommended Posts

Checked it out, after adding on all of what I found I needed in the drop downs I was at $3,800. I guess thats not bad but all I ever priced was Superchargers and not Turbos. May also consider and LSA supercharger. Never heard of the web page, so I may need to do more research before forking over my moneys.

Can't use a LSA supercharger on a GEV 5 motor.  You can do a LT4 supercharger swap but for about 4500 bucks.  Or you could do a SLP supercharger for about the same price I would just go this way for a complete kit if you want to supercharge it.

 

If you want a Turbo Huron Speed is have a group buy on Performancetrucks.net right now.  They don't have a 2014+ kit out yet but said they will have them in a few months.  I may jump on the group buy next year when the 2104+ kits are out.  With the group buy it almost as cheap as ON3 but much much better quality.

LSA is a thing of the past with these LT motors. For a LS it's a good upgrade though

It seems the newer stuff on3 works with such as the new Mustangs, F150's, Silverado's, etc is better quality. The kits for the 99-06 trucks are garbage. Crossover is junk most of the time. Local tuner is running the on3 kit on his 2016 Silverado rcsb I believe and it moves pretty good

I think there is a small US company making billet adapter plates for LSA blowers to LT intakes. Don't quote me on that but I am 90% sure I read that somewhere in my internet travels. There is ALWAYS some custom work to a turbo kit, especially on the cheap. If you want a bolt on turbo kit with a quality turbo and piping, intercooler, whole nine yards your probably buying junk unless your kit costs $6k+. The only kit I knew about for these trucks was Armageddon turbo systems, but I am not sure if they are still in business or not. Your best route for easy bolt on power would be a Magnussen TVS blower designed for these trucks, or a Procharger P1SC kit. 

 

EDIT- Here are the billet adapters for the LSA blower: https://lsa-conversion-store.myshopify.com/products/1-lt1-adapter-plates

Maybe hit up the folks at Torque Storm. They seem to have a good build process, but they may be way beyond what your going for on the price. Comparably you get good power for the price.

That link is still for a LT4 supercharger for a 2014+ motor.  Not a LSA

 

If you want a really good turbo charger kit that is complete.  Trick turbo has the best one made for our trucks for around 4,500

I checked Trick Turbo page but I don't find a Trick Turbo kit for 2014 models :(

So you have a 2014 Silverado and a 95 Stepper in Italy? That is very cool. How did you facilitate that deal, there are no GM dealers in Italy are there? I am pretty interested to hear more. Do you have someone there you would trust doing the tuning on your truck, are there any LS experts over there? Either you need a dyno tuner, or you need to buy a turbo/supercharger kit that comes with a tune preloaded on a USB or something similar.

Thanks ! Yeah and the 95 is swapped with a 454 four bolt marine Big Block.

No there aren't GM dealers here but there are car importers like my friend Cuttica of Genova that import cars from USA, I have imported 4 cars with him since now. In Italy there are American cars not official dealers but they are damn expensive, importing by myself I pay the right price and I have a very big choice.

I trust a mechanic friend who built the 454 and made the swap on the 95, he have a garage just for American cars and he is a drag racing driver, he can install the turbo but I'm not sure about the dyno tuning, so I need a tune preloaded turbo/supercharger kit, I'm looking for the Trick Turbo one.
