riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight
back to reality.
Powerhouse is the only company for a turbokit, so easy decision there.
If your going to be doing turbo, u cant have a CAI.
our heads are already aluminum.
it says u already have dual exhaust, why would u want another one?
If u plan on doing turbo and nitrous, ur going to need a new shortblock as well.
sounds like you got about $15k in purchases to look forward to.
Do you just like posting words u find on the internet? Doesnt seem like u know too much bout cars (ours in particular)

Couple guys here took on a couple Z/28's V8 with good results.

In the couple races I had took care of 88 Trans Am V8 and a 1979 Vette V8 they should call this little 6 the V8 killer (LOL) or least some V8's. Of course there are other V8's your not going to beat but it is really something this thing can hang with some and beat some.

RE: help
i meant that i already had duals.. and i did not know that we already had alum heads... i also did not know that with a turbo you cant use cai... why is that? ... and if i do do nitrous i know that i will have to redo the internals and most likely get a new block...
i know my way around cars... but i have only had classic cars.. therefore carb setup and not fuel injected... i am new to the performance side of things esp turbos since the only things that you can throw on a classic is a supercharger without a lot of rebuilding.... i dont appreciate the harrasment im just trying to learn about the new technology....
