Everything Your LS Swap Needs to Build a Hot Side Turbo Setup
Hit any cruise night in America and you’re bound to trip over at least a couple of turbocharged LS swapped vehicles. From 3rd Gen Camaros to C10 pickup trucks, and even some Fords, there is simply no denying the power that a turbocharged LS can put to the tires. Whether you already have a 5.3 LS engine down on the frame rails and you’re looking to add a 5.3 LS single turbo kit to it, or you’re still in the planning phase with your 5.3 LS sitting on engine stand in the shop, getting everything you need to build the critical, and often complicated, hot side of a 5.3 LS single turbo kit is a breeze now thanks to our LS hot side turbo kit we’ve built using VS Racing turbos and Hooker’s LS turbo manifold kit as key pieces. Throw in the turbo flange, V-band clamps, and the proper wastegate and all you have to do is break out the welder! We feel this is one of the best budget LS turbo kit offerings to build the hot side of an LS single turbo kit you will find that can easily create a 700 HP LS combination.
Our Hot Side LS Single Turbo Kit Starts with A 67mm Turbo Ready for Bolt-On Power
The heart of the LS hot side turbo kit is VS Racing’s 67/62 cast turbo. Starting with VS Racing’s precisely machined cast iron turbine housing that uses the popular T4 mounting flange and 3-inch V-band clamp outlet, a cast aluminum compressor wheel and oil cooled journal bearing center housing assembly is fitted and then finished off with a cast aluminum compressor housing with 4-inch inlet and 2.5-inch outlet. Spool up is quick with the .82 A/R turbine housing and cast compressor wheel. This is the perfect foundation for a high boost 700 HP 5.3 LS build or bolt it on to a 6.0 LS and easily have a 700 HP 6.0 LS with plenty of room to grow.
The 3-inch turbine outlet is easily plumbed using a section of 3-inch tubing to create front fender exit exhaust or build off the 3-inch tubing to adapt to your current exhaust system. The compressor outlet uses 2.5-inch tubing that is easily retained using hose couplers and T-bolt style clamps.
Use our T4 oil feed and drain kit to plumb your engine’s pressurized oil to the turbo’s center housing assembly. To get your turbo’s hot oil back to the pan for cooling you’ll need our T3 oil drain adapter along with the AN -10 fitting of your choice. At the oil pan you’ll need to add an AN -10 weld on bung fitting or you can bolt on our LS swap oil pan with built in turbo oil drain fitting if you need a LS swap turbo kit pan anyway.
