Wanted to share my super cheap budget turbo full-size truck build. My goal is to build a legit low budget clean as possible but cheap as possible. If you have any questions feel free to comment. I’m going to post links below for some of the parts I used. The Main part of my kit that allowed all this to happen is the Hotside that I got from XS-POWER. You cannot beat it for the price and it fits multiple vehicles with LS Swaps. Below is a list of links to the parts that went into this. Big thanks to XS POWER I can’t thank them enough, great service, great products!

That's a sweet setup for what you have in it 🤘. I had a CLEAN 02 Silverado the same color and had plans to do the same. It was a good running 4.8 and I miss it daily. It would run all over both of my buddies 5.3 trucks and it made him so mad lol. We don't know what it was about it. It just ran hard with the same bolt ONS. Anyway, that gives me a push to get another one now 💪

@thesouthernlife4061 2 жыл бұрын

Not bad. More than one to skin a cat with the ls truck turbo builds. Four years ago, I went with the basic On3 kit with the 7875 upgrade $2,100 shipped, no tax. No regrets with the On3; buyers just have to factor in wideband, fueling, fans, tuning, etc. Just swap in a good junkyard 4l80e, before going into serious boost.
