i have seen that vid before and its awesome. but the turbo kit is 5500$.....pretty pricey lol. anything else cheaper?? i see universal t3/t4 turbo kits on ebay for like 1300$...

dont forget to add a trans to the parts list if you buy a turbo.

If u really wanted it, had a person over on gpona design it for me ill make it smaller. altho mine is the same size as darkhorizon's ""like a boss"" lol

Ever think there's a reason the "universal" ebay kit is so cheap?

true that. lol hair dryers. im thinking i might buy the ebay piping kit, get a better turbo manifold, and buy a better turbo and get the hogan dp, and be right around a grand. then install and get upgraded internals on the trans.

The only problem with cartuning is good luck with getting ahold of the f u c king bastard its been about a month just for an electric cutout

Why would you even bother with CT for an electric cutout when one can be purchased through summit racing or any other online performance place?

I boight one through summit but motor hits cars floor, bout a cheap used one same deal, the on kevin has at ct has no clearence issues, he had to try a few cuz the cutout is pre-welded to the dp

will do. i was thinking about that but i was going to finish the exhaust completely when adding that kit on to make the dp fit right and everything. you think i should throw some headers on it?? btw your car is awesome, i love the wheels .

no can do, u need stock manifolds, but i recommend doing this ( pic below ) WRAP IT

keep the stock manifold theres no need for a different one, just get it ported if u really wish
