Anyone from Colorado have a Turbo Kit in their 4th Gen ?
I'm looking into Turbo's and want to know who can do the
complete install and how much.

Thx, TMeyers-Colorado

 

drive to arizona and talk to NIGEL is that simple

 

Isn't PFI in Ft. Collins?

 

I thought it was in arizona if I am wrong sorry.

 

Well....4th gen with Turbo's in Colorado ?

Where's PFI ?

Thanks, TMeyers

 

PFI and Nigel are in Fort Collins. Go to www.pfispeed.com . They are the "main" producer of turbo kits for our car.......

 

Yes, PFI is about 10 minutes from me in Fort Collins. Dafro (Ryan) also has a turbo in his auto max, while Nigels is a 5 spd that just plain hauls some serious ****!!!!!!!

 

How do I get a hold of Nigels to ask questions.
What kind of HP is Nigels getting out of his ?
1/4 mile times ?...o-60 times ?

They are both in Ft. Collins. Nigel is in and out of the country so it may be hard to get in touch with him.

Nigel and DafHO have dynoed, I don't remember the numbers right off.

Nigel - 5-speed
DafHO - Aut-HO

 

Thanks !!!

 

Just got back today! PM or email me if you're interested to know more about my car.

 

You can do the install yourself. It's just a weekend thing.

 

Feeling better yet?

 

I could install it myself...but the tunning and dyno would have to
be done at the shop

 

Jep, just make sure you have a chop saw, grinder, hole saw, good eye for measuring things from funky pictures that don't give you specs or a template for where to drill your unibody frame, tap/dye to convert from supplied NPT to required BSP fitting on the oil supply, and so forth.

Yes, it can be done, I even managed to do it. Bill at PFI is a good guy and assured me some things have been changed so hopefully it's a lot better and more of a "bolt-on, weekend thing" for you.

If you are going to do it, it's possible to do with just hand tools but you'd be well served by having the following;
a compressor with an impact wrench and ratchet, metric deep sockets, power screwdriver, Dremel and metric box/open-end wrenches, torque wrench, PB Blaster, 1/2" NPT tap, 13/16" drill bit, (last 2 are only if you're tapping the valve cover for oil return) assortment of pliers, and a Sawzall (or other reciprocating saw to cut bumper for IC). There might be other stuff but that's what comes to mind at this point.

For elecronics/gauges, you'll need; various sizes of vaccuum line, gauges, multimeter, crimps, extension wires to splice MAF wiring, soldering iron w/ solder, electrical tape, wire taps, etc.

Tuning issues would have to be addressed locally.
