... my advice is to get a complete kit from Livernois or Trick... add tuning and have fun. Hold on to your wallet... your drivetrain will need upgrades too. We all turn up the wick... and drivetrain upgrades come with it. Know that up front and you will not be disappointed

my only concern about the turbo is the stock compression ratio on an lq9 and how much thats going to limit my boost. here in cali i can really only get 91 unless i want to run 100 octane at 5.50 a gallon.

Ever heard of Torco? I am a VERY FIRM believer in it... ask around... and don't look back I have been down the road of racing gas and mixing it to try and stay alive. I keep a 5 gallon can of Torco in the garage... lasts me about 6 months. I run a 32oz can in every tank (23 gallon or so fill up)... worked VERY well when I had the Maggie on top... now I have a turbo. I am running 7psi on the turbo... ZERO KR... and lots of power. Granted, tuning is different from tuner to tuner. I have HP Tuners and like to keep on top of my engines activities. Just a thought

Well, congrats up front bro...

Stay tuned man... there is a VERY good competition ahead. Single Turbo's up top, STS, MP122HH, TVS,... my god... the aftermarket COMETH!!!!

This is a GREAT time to have money (or credit ) on hand.

That is a very nice system. I will throw one comment out there and maybe get beat up, but with the system being mild steel, a flex joint on the cross over is a must have to avoid extra stress in the system that may cause cracks down the road. It's something that could easily be added for anybody buying this system.
