Why don't you all just help the guy out, instead of saying search for it. Thats been said a million times before.

To the poster check out this thread it will answer many questions, also PM the thread starter if you need more info, he's a great guy.

the basics on an ls is to sway out that motor for the 2.0 and throw on a turbo... sorry bro the LS 2.2 can be turbo'd but it's a bitch to do

it's possible and can be had for about 2500 if you go custom (thats including a new intake manifold)... however you need to find someone that knows how to tune with the the AEM fic or megasquirt (a stand alone) or something like the smt-7 piggy back but really you're biggest issue is tuning.
