for the money though...

do this on a stock bottom end and have a sleeper that makes 400-450RW, drives like stock, and you'll have less money into it than an HCI/Strim setup...

how much does that kit go for???

base kit from them is $1500...thats just the kit and no fuel, MAF, tuning, etc...you'll;; have about $2500-2800 into it with basic items and tuning...a little over $3K with lots of extra conveniences like turbo blanket, y-pipe, oil filter relocation...and some others...

Hahaha try to find another way to make that power cheaper than that....

I havent even seen nitrous cars make the kind of power that turbogt did with a scab turbo kit.


Good luck man.

Stock motor with a turbo will probably beat you with your strim and gt40s...

My setup?...I will beat you ALL the time...

Happy to get off your thread. Facts are facts and take it from someone that builds these things all the time if you want a "pavement" pounder then look for something other than GT40s unless you truly are going to add BOOST to the equation.


Later tater.

I dont really care what heads you are referring to.

You want a pavement pounder just use the stock decent running motor you probably still have in your car and bolt on a nice lil turbo kit.

Itll make more than enough power to make your block a pile of scrap metal and then you can build you a real motor with a real block and a real top end.

Once you have had a few combos, like I have, and played with about 50 of these cars like I have,,, you will start to see where Im comin from.

lol i wouldnt buy an s trim..that on3 kit is a great deal..and what i like the most is you make more power with less boost..no power robbed from the power it takes to turn the supercharger..and not to mention there isnt any sideload on the crankshaft...i have seen quite a few crank snouts fly off..not that it will happen to you..jus sayin..turbocharge it [Whoo Whooooo!]

Put the s trim on it for now and later on down the road maybe H/C/I and it will be a stout little car.
