Hey guys, I'd like to first off let you know that I have been lurking on these forums for well over a year and a half reading and learning as much as possible. I have a 2008 Tahoe that I bought new with a 4.8. I bought the truck since it had plenty of room for audio.

I've always been quite comfortable messing around with old carberated motors (have a mud truck I play around with) but never could find much information about the new ls motors. All that was solved when I came to this site. After a lot of searching and reading I finally bit the bullet and bought some 60# injectors from Fuel Injector Connection (great guys to work with). I also put a down payment on the turbo kit so Rick could start his work (originally had a 6 week wait). Only 3 weeks later the kit was ready and I gladly sent the rest of the payment over. Upon the kits arrival I was very happy to see the quality of the welds and workmanship of my kit. Rick did a great job, and I would definitely say he has the best service I have ever experienced after the sale.

After a week and at least 50 phone calls to Rick the kit was in, and I was so excited to hear the truck run. Truck fired right up and I was immediately hooked.

I know I know, enough writing.... pics








































I drove the truck over the Vengeance Racing in Cumming, Ga and got it tuned by Mike (great guy) and took it down the drag strip. (yes with all the **** in the back, 24's, and 3 alternators).



It may not be most of yalls idea of a fast truck, but it's exactly what I wanted.

Comments appreciated.

 

My question is what did it run without the turbo...

Clean tahoe.

 

Nice to see a Sundown fan.


Very nice ride, except for the scoop and the Alabama tag!

 

Never ran it before the turbo. Now I kind of wish I could have gotten a base line. Real question is what would it run in stock trim without any additions.

 

Always hated the scoop, dealership did that. Been looking for a nice replacement hood. And Roll Tide Roll.

 

Probably right around a 15.7 at 93 lol. That weight is killer, especially in a 4.8L tank like that.

 

Haha it definitely was a pig without the snail. Still takes forever to get off the line. Finding a ly6 around here is about like a needle in a hay stack, finding anyone with good information is even harder.

 

I hear that, soon as everyone discovered they had L92 heads they all sold quick. Seems like the week after I bought mine they jumped up like $500

 

Haha been hoping to find a nice ly6 and 4l80 for over a year now. The only place I really have to look is online, and nothing is ever too close.

 

Hey its your lucky day, theres one down in Florida for $3900 lol
