Sorry for posting in your thread and confusing you Neal. It was for Erik.

The turbo is nice, looks like a small one that will boost quick, what are the specs?

Actually its the same turbo as the PFI kit has I believe. Its a T4/T04e .60 A/R (60 trim). The guy I bought it from is on the org but doesn't post all that often, his name is on_alert, ejj and some other guys know him. He said boost starts coming on about 2500 and full boost by about 3200.

happy to see u went to the next level but the ultimate thread would have been with it already in your car showing time slips, dyno, and such.


But when it comes to turbo, its too hard to resist so early

Congrats on the new setup, this should be very interesting. Are you doing anything to build up your engine to handle boost? If i remember correctly your engine has quite a few miles on it already.

Water cooled also. There's mixed feeling about divided housing if you're not running tuned exhaust to take full advantage of it but if the price was right who cares. At least you have the brakes to match that dryer

I got a ride in the car with that kit when he was only boosting 4psi IIRC.

Fun.

Theres not really much more to show at this point, the other stuff is just a bunch of piping and oil lines and fittings and an air filter and boring stuff like that.

Neal, I almost bought that kit. Very well engineered and for $1500 you could not go wrong. You should only need a ssq bov, a good 60-70mm wastegate, and ~24x8x3" fmic and the various clamps and couplings to complete that bad setup. Oh and boost controller if you want, but a manual could work for now. Total cost of about $2500 for a sick setup, it was just bad timing for me. Did you end up getting the oil feed, return lines and upper tapped pan also? Good luck.
