LS2Edit Tuning


What size Pistons should go with and head gasket size?

anyone?
Why the disco potato? That is a small turbo. Not bad for the application but still gonna have room to dance behind the engine.

for a little disco potato you should be safe at 10, track 12, and tuned for race gas 14 easy.

If you were to get a big turbo like a GT35R I wouldnt push more than 8 on your build and 12 max on race gas.

Well you can probably find regrinds or something. Balance Shafts would be a good investment
