hey mate, where did you get your kit from? im looking at turboing my ute.

 

[SirNemesis]

I'm not sure if you are asking me or not. My kit is from GenRacing. GenRacing

i got mine from ase engineering , very good quality, everything fitted up nicely, but the intercooler was a bitch becuase of the battery, u realy need to get a smaller
battery to make the intercooler pipe fit past it, ive herd alot of people recommend the castrol 10w 60 but inst this to thick for an engine that was designed to take a 10w 30 -10w 40 oil

Steve from Mainlube says its fine. Oil is what he does, so I believe him

ULX-110 motor oil is realy good, thats what i use and would recomend.

ive currently got that in my LS2 no dramas and good oil pressure .
designed for Turbo/ Supercharged and bigger motors for Street / Drag/ circuit racing
