Screw supercharging...


Check out Ponydown turbo systems... these guys are less than an hour away frommeand i have heard nothing but good things about their kits.They said the wait on a kit would be about 5-6 weekswhenmy friend spoke with them last week.$3000 for a complete single kit is a steal....


Their site
