Do we have enough collective information for an LSx turbo Sticky for those interested in adding boost?

Re: LSX Turbo

I think a lsx power adder sticky would be great..but I can see how it also would be difficult due to many options on setup.There isnt much for a bolton setup..most parts are custom and the difference in intercooler setups between firebird and camaros need to be laid out.

I say start with a sticky of build threads and update it as more guys start building more boosted applications and keep it updated
