I was trying to talk him into a 5.3 with a turbo..my reasoning was the smaller bore of the 5.3 would make the turbo more efficient along with not being as hard because the the piston is being held more rigid with the rod being able to cover more area

I think I remember hearing about that when I was younger but I can't remember for sure..if I need to explain it better I can but it just seems to me that a certain size turbo pushing a certain amount of boost will work better in a slightly smaller bore than a larger
He needs to put a 5.7 with a supercharger on it in the truck with huge drag radials on it and naked lady mudflaps.
