That is very true my friend. But the things with the LLY LBZ and LMM is that they are all VGT Turbos. I don't no how you would go about controling that turbo on a none VGT truck I know it can be done seen it as Primaries as twin setups. So im sure it's the mone why you don't hear about it more.

They may have a Cheetah Turbos for the LB7 but im sure they are not VGT. Those cheetahs turbos are stock upgrades with bigger compressor But they may have a Cheetah for a LB7.

No they aren't VVT turbos, there aren't any out there for the LB7 as far as i know, they never came with with them. The conversion to VVT wouldn't be worth it in my opinion, just give Bradyn Fleece a call he"ll fill you in on the LB7 cheetah.

they go got lb7 cheetahs. cant order them from the site, but u can call brayden and have it made. they are a straight bolt on, no need to remove the pedestal.

a5k is more of a pulling turbo. but its good also. and of course garret is good.

I had a A5K on my old truck Daily Driver Sled Puller and Drag Racer it's a good turbo I like it. Garrets are always good cause most of them are BB Turbos But I heard though I havent seen one Turbonetics has some BB turbos that are supposed to be BADASS.
