LM7 5.3l question

[addictedtosin]

I am currently looking to do a swap to a 240sx, but I am trying to find some useful threads in which it gives me an idea of what turbo to use to achive 500-525 whp on a stock engine w/ pump 91 gas? Can anyone please help?

theres a good 70mm for sale here...

id say that will do the trick

What mitch said. I made 440/411 on a GT67/.81 on my stock internal 5.3. Small LS6 cam or GT2-3 with the 70mm and about 8-12 pounds of boost should get you there

So an LM7 can handle 12-14 psi on pump 91 octane gas, that sounds to good to be true? I figured 8 psi would be the max is that wrong?

I'm runnign 12 with no problems. It's all in the tune. Up to 10lbs and you need pushrods and stiffer springs for added insurance
