    Hello I'm thinking of fabbing up a twin turbo set up on my truck. I have a stock 5.3 right now. I am looking for suggestions on what kind of cam to get. and what kind of turbos to get and what size? I have a 6.0 sitting in my garage but i want to see what a 5.3 can handle first before i put the 6.0 in. The set-up I designed is intercooled and i have a good amount of room to play with for the sizing of the turbo. I want it to be a daily driver too with about 12 psi of boost. Let me know what to get and I might sell these kits in the near future for all you people in the Minnesota area!!

    WAIT, so you are going to be fabbing up a twin turbo set up for the 5.3, and want to eventually start selling them, but you dont even know what size turbos to use? I'm not trying to bash you, just trying to figure your idea out. By no means am I an expert, but maybe think about what you ask a little bit before you ask it.

    Ok i&#39;m asking what is a reliable turbo and what size should i do for a daily driver. I build custom headers for hotrods and one day i decided to play with my truck a little bit and came up with a design that would be one of the better designs i have seen. I don&#39;t play with turbos a lot and don&#39;t really know much about them thats why i am asking. I haven&#39;t researched turbos a lot before i posted. I think I found some now so i&#39;m all good and we will see how it works. :flipoff:
