    Who makes turbo kits besides sts or parts like turbo manifolds or headers for a
    2001 5.3 my truck is bone stock except a after cat exhaust. It ran a 15.222 its first time out @ 93mph. I guess i got bit by the bug. I wnat to be able to run as low as possible with out using a cage so i guess thats 11.99 and slower, right? what is your combo for a 12 second 1/4? I think a turbo setup would be the best for a DD. How do i get rid of the torque management crap. any help is great. thanks

    Start out with a NelsonPerformance.com tune to rid you of torque management and gain some HP. Get yourself a stall convertor good for at least 2800 launch RPM. Lock the rear end with at least 3.73 gears. Get the power to the ground.

    I think that Allen is begining to sell the Livernois kits as well as STS. As far as how fast you can go it;s 11.50 before you need a roll bar .....
    04 Silverado SS with livernois 67mm hybrid, 60 lb injectors. PKRE Special grind cam, Meth. Nelson tune, 3500 yank, built 65e 3'' 5'' drop, 20" Centerline Stingrays.......... pretty fast for a "shop truck"
