Wanna do a turbo

Donny2453 · Sep 18th, 2004, 05:38 AM

I have done research on the turbos for the 1.8L engine. Chimmike I would like to get that kit from you i just need to save up some money--are you still selling them?? Also if i buy that kit--thats all i will need for the mod correct?? I wont need anything extra? i have a two friends who put a new turbo in his 97 talon so they know what they are doing with it so i dont need to spend more money on a shop. So ill need about 4grand for the whole kit including the upgrade? One last question is--is it a lot of work to put it in and how long--ballpark--does it take?? Thanks for your patience

yes I sell the kits. properly done I'd say 3 days, maybe a little more, just take your time and do everything right.

How much horsepower does it get me up too?? Is it worth the money--cause i can wait till they come out with cams, cheeper header, cai, and high flow resenator. What do you think is a better move--honestly--turbo or bolt ons? What will the turbo give me in 1/4 mile times? Thanks

nobody will come out with a cheaper header. you don't want to buy a cheaper header anyways, because cheap ones are crap.

if you've looked at my website, you'll see the power the turbo kit can give you. You'll never get anywhere near that amount of power with bolt ons.

1/4 time depends on the driver completely.

Ok thanks--i have to save money for a little bit so it will be a while before i will be able to get it--so dont keep asking me if im going to get it ill let you know when im ready. Thanks for your input. One more thing--who makes the intercooler and what size injectors are they

there are probably 3 different intercoolers that can come with the kit so who makes it is not set in stone. Injector size is not necessary for you to know. Just know that they are more than adequate and will support more power than the stock engine can handle.
