To anyone who has a Turbo...
I might be joining your ranks! I found guy who does R&R for a company (he wishes to remain unnamed along with this company for legal reasons)who said that he would be "more than happy to fit a custom turbo application" and it pretty much came down to I only had to pay for parts! Does anyone have a write up of any sort that I could give him to speed up the process? Any tips/tricks/glitches, things to look out for, etc. Im so excited!!! And he is talking about if things go well, and if possible, throwing any idea at his superior that they should make a kit if possible! YES!! And now its time to start saving :-)
Thanks
Jay

Not instructions, just so he knows about problems other people have had so that he can avoid them. He knows what he is doing as this is a very large company and I dont think they would have a dumbass working for them. At least I hope not. So no one has anything on common problems? Ohh well, he should have plenty of time to work everything out. He is going to have it all winter while its in "storage"

Aww CRAP!
Well, as the message was being passed from person to person, some dumbass said SUPERcharger. So, after taking my car in, he says something along the lines of it being better off for me to turbo. Grrr... So now I need to head to Illionis to talk to some other guy about a TURBO not SUPER charger. So Im looking at a 3 hour drive to a guy that says he might be able to, but he needs to see my car first. Damnit, maybe I should just get NOS and be happy.

Japan is the only place that sells TypeR stuff.

yeah, that'll be cool when you get the blower, but you won't be able to run alot of boost till you do the internals. . . .the list just keeps going and going and going. . . .
but if you get a supercharger, i'll be the first one to pat you on the back.
