But the real question is what will can we get out of a stock turbo before we need to upgrade???

Well, the stock LTG can be bumped up to 330hp/375tq with just a tune....

Lol my money is on the engine going first if you want to keep it 91/93 tuned. If you go e85, might be able to max out the turbo but your biggest issue will be ring gap. You won’t have enough, unless the engine is worn, to max out the turbo

Comp ratios between the two engines, LCV - 11.3:1, LTG - 9.5:1

LCV has piston oil squirters, too. Couldnt find specs on ring gaps.

Darn. Forgot about the bosses for the turbo oil and coolant feeds/drains.

Yeah that’s no big deal, all things considered
