Re: New setup

i made some profit on my old kit :)

i dont have many bills lol, so i can afford to spend most my money on my car lol

Re: New setup

you sold the turbo kit on ftv6 for 1300 right? is that even enough for the abbot heads?

Not doubting you man, I'm just shocked you seem so calm about dropping this much change, when I'm like struggling to save up for Hp tuners lol.

Gl with your build man. Maybe when I'm in Austin sometime I can swing by.

Re: New setup

hmm good point koa --- stage III heads and supporting valvetrain will run you 1600 new IIRC...


you make THAT kinda profit man?

[Fondle]

Re: New setup

i have other money then just what i sold the kit for lol

if you can piece together the kits and fabricate them yourself its too expensive

i do alot of fiber glass work and tuning so i make decent money from that, especially cars i already have licenses for those year

Re: New setup

I doubt you'll make anything even close to 600 hp with that turbo (even with a cam). You'd be better off with with a Garret GT35r.

BTW, 130 lb valve springs arent enough for a setup like that...better go with 150. I know this because I have TurboV6Camaro's old 130's when he switched to 150's on a similar setup ;)

BTW, why do you have a hard-on for 600 hp?? Are you building a dyno queen?

Re: New setup

Damn wish I was making bank. Well if you got the $ I'd say go for it man. Thats a rad set up.

good advice here ^

when my time comes for the turbo fairy, i'm gt35r all the way hands down.

and good question shodown --- fondle, are you building this car to be fast on the track, or just to put down crazy numbers?

Re: New setup

Doesn't Linxs have a set up similar to this ?

Re: New setup

i want a street car, doesnt have to be 600hp, thats just a goal.. good to have goals right?

i talked to the guys at modular turbo and they told me garret was more of an import turbo, and all the master power turbos can compare to the quality and reliability

he told me the gt35r couldnt make 600 on my motor and i would need the 70a/r to able to achieve 600

^^That reminds me...if you do want the magical 600 hp, you 'd better get a custom built bell housing for an M6 conversion because nobody makes a T5 that can handle power like that. Linxs is the only I know of that has an M6 bolted to his car. Every 5 speed turbo car that I have read about has killed multiple transmissions (usually 3rd gear). Just FYI.

Re: New setup

well my transmission has every upgrade you can do done to it, done by a known builder in the austin area, so only time will tell how it holds

Re: New setup

we're talkin 600 to the crank, correct?
