    I have turbo'd two 5.3s and one 6.0.. i did all the fab work but had someone else tune them.. i learned a bit on each one.. the first was a single turbo stock 5.3 junkyard engine in a ford ranger on e85 with a 4l80e and 17 lbs of boost.. that made 560 hp to the 35 inch tires..
    Then i did a twin turbo 5.3 in a stock chevy truck.. 8 lbs of boost made 385 to the wheels..
    Then put a 6.0 in an 83 four door dodge.. twin turbo with 8 lbs made 475 hp and 530 hp iirc
