If you want an inexpensive single turbo, try these. They promise great HP and Torque for the price of $3500. You can't beat that. www.turbohorsepower.com

I would recommend turbohorsepower.com as well. Not a customer, but I get a good impression from customers on the forum. Plus, the kits look great.

What spammers don't understand is that it's NOT a good idea to skimp on forced induction. The cheepest is not always the best.

I had to draw in the TQ curve because it wouldnt scan. Best numbers i've seen from any turbo setup. Alot of usable HP

Just because this is my first post doesn't mean that I don't know anything about turbo's. Ask DEX, he'll vouch for me. Right Dex? This is a pic of my AC Cobra I sold last month. 10.87 e.t. @ 131 mph.

Thanks for the dyno sheet. Looks good. The high torque number is a surprise. Do you have any other performance mods? Did you install it and how difficult was it?
