Default RE: turbo

The prices depend largely on the type of turbo you get with the kit. My single turbo was a bit more than the normal single turbo kit because I decided to get a hybrid dual ball bearing turbo. You guys have to really contact TMA about this. I don't want to mislead you and say prices that are more or less than the actual. Catch him on AIM he will gladly answer your questions.

yea well im far off from this considering i have no money for this...what type of things did you have to do to your car...how much mileage do you have...stock trans and rear?...how safe is it to run this on a engine with higher mileage how much did your setup cost total with everythign needed and installed.. would a supercharger be better...i mean i know turbo has more power but woudl a s/c be cheaper and easier to install

get the whole power pack, as for PSI stock i would say around 11 maybe 12 with a good tune, even though justin at vmp is running 17 through a stock motor, but just cause you could doesnt mean you should
