    4.8L Turbo build

    So, after being sick and tired of messing around with the I6 motors I decided to get a GM 4.8L V8. It's a LR4 out of a 2003 truck. Quite a few people are pulling big numbers on these motors and running the 1/4 mile in the 9's. We'll see how this goes. Picking it up. Getting it in here wasn't...

    http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-7m-gte67mmturbokit.php I want to know if anyone has this turbo kit on their car and how they like it.
