Project Turbo new Pix

These are a few pix from the Import Expo2 show. Got the Turbo back from getting plated the day before the show. The show was last weekend. The max is back at the shop getting the rest of the piping done and getting the haltech installed.


heres a link to the rest of the pix.

I'd say in the range of 4 to 5 depending how much

your tuner charges for labor. I won't say exactly because I don't know how much Jason is going to charge every one if decides he wants to reproduce this into a kit. Theres a lot of custom stuff to do. It won't be a Do-It-Yourself kit like the SC.

I'll only probably boost between 8-10 lbs. I have an extra motor I'd like to build out, but that down the road.
I Have GC but I take them off after shows it's too bumpy for me.

maybe some of the piping might be reproduced but its too early to tell if this is something that can be made a kit. Houston folks can probably just come to the shop and have him quote you on the job.

I'm not doing the work. you see I've been planning this out for years.
1.My first step was finding a wife.
2.Then I had to make her buy a car.
3.Convince her that it would be fun driving me to work untill the
project done.
4.Then find a job that would sponsor this project. When I'm done I'll
probably have to slap a SAP sticker on my car with all the OT thats
gone into this car. hell I'm at right now

So you see many of you might not do this project because you have to be this devoted to this project. Many would not even want to go thru step 1. I know I'm sad, but I'm at work.

Some time the show thing isn't worth the trouble. That Max gets heavy when you have to push it on a trailer to get it to the show. But it was fun.

Where is the turbo going to be mounted? I know it's not going to sit where it is right now. I would be really interested in a kit if that helps convince your guy to make a kit, mark me down for one
