        geez, all you people who say "its gay" and "its still gay" are just as bad as the V8 guys raggin' on you for modding your 6. I thought you guys were better than that but i guess you're just V6 guys with the unwanted, immature attitude of the V8 owners.

        Shenanigans, i dont think there are any times yet because i think the people who are doing that turbo project are still adding to it. that particular car is from scionspeed.com. The have a 4:23 vid that is approx 20 mins, some of it is just riding around and hten they see how fast they can get it to on a road, got it to 130 but then the limiter kicked in. I timed the video from when they started going to when they said "130 mph speed cut sucks" and it was around 20 secs, but that might be off because i was going by when they had that message flash on screen. Dumbass frickin hit the rev limiter and it was bouncing and he didn't shift for like 1-2 secs while it was bouncing...dumbass. I thought that the video was going to show them on the Dyno, but it didn't...i was kind of disappointed, but if you want to see it the vid is here http://www.scionspeed.com/TCturbovid.mpg
        I have a V8, but am in the market for a 3800 Series 2. </font>[/QUOTE]THat just goes to show that you are the typical V8 owner *** then becaues you have a V8, and oh look at that you're an *** too.

        It would be different and be gay if it was just all talk like many civic owners, they dont put out 295 HP its all talk. These people that made this turbo didn't just talk the talk they walked the walk, so have a little respect would you is that so hard?

          Ya just ned a turbo and any 60* motor can get 250-300 dyno HP. Doward at 3rgen. has 255 with his 3.1 and small turbo. Bigger turbo on the way.

All brand new parts complete with everything you can think of for just under $3000 sounds like allot till you see all the stuff you get. There isn't much if any profit made.

                      Eh, 222 hp.... to me its not worth it IMO especially on an old motor like the 3.1, that is just a little over what 4th gen v6 fbodies get. Not saying its not impressive for his hard work, because it is especially since like i said it is an old motor and base hp on a 3rd gen is 160 (not sure what it gets at the wheels tho)

                        going from 160 crank hp to 222 rwhp isn't worth it???? and about a 100more torque???? Just think f you put that on a swapped in 3.4 [img]graemlins/stickpoke.gif[/img]
