S91 to big for lq9?

[92lsxfox]

I have a lq9 stock pistons and crank. Rings regapped for boost, arp rod bolts, e85 built top end. I have a guy wanting to sell me a s91 with a 1.32 ar for 1000 shipped, seems like a good deal I was going to go with a s480 with billet wheel but that seems like a good deal to me. Looking for 1000+hp

Depends on a lot of variables you have not talked about. Will it "work"? yes. I have seen guys use them on 408 projects and make 900+rwhp. Is it ideal for your combo should be your question.

I would contact Jose @ Forced Inductions as talk with him about your project. He is usually very talkative and willing to help. But have head flow info, cam specs, compression, fuel type, engine operating rpm and so on. The more you can provide the more accurate he can be.

I have used Jose a lot in the past. Always great service.

I also really like the BW turbos. I have used them with great results for 7 years now. They perform great and have a great price point.

yeah I cant wait to see for myself!

It'll be just fine with the right cam/converter. Just double-check with a turbo manufacturer to ensure that that's the right size exhaust housing. There are plenty of similarly sized engines running the same/larger compressor wheels.

For a G it is not a bad deal at all. It will take you there easily and the gen 4 rods will probably for a while but think slugs and rods in the future. With e85 you could probably run enough boost to do it on a stockish engine but i would prefer camming it up and possibly heads, then keeping the boost levels lower.

yeah I talked to martin and he said do it and gave me a cam to run, ill build to whole top end and im gapping the rings for boost and arp rod bolts so we will see how we do, im already thinking forged rods and pistons I just want to run the stockers while I have them the motor only has 48k on it so its not terrible!
