Hmm. Well a k04 setup would make that much, im on one but a lot of people say not to do it.

On a stock le5 you could run the s252 from the zzp kit. Would be a little big but would leave you room to grow. Otherwise you could get like a 2860 or 2871 from garret theyre a little bit bigger than the k04

oh yeah just looked into that zzp kit, looks great. that definitely leaves some room to grow.
the piggy is about to get really fat for this build.
