It sounds like that would be your best route, however, since you don't seem to know much about turbo systems and such. Turboing a car requires quite a bit of planning and knowledge, so sticking with the Mosselman kit would be your best bet. __________________ -Kenny | | | 07-20-2006, 09:15 PM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Tacompton, WA Posts: 309 | Quote: Originally Posted by REDIS first off. if your going to even put thought in this you will need another car to drive.

I have been working on this car so long I bought a damn s13 cause I got bored of driving suv's and chevy corsicas around. My car is now finally driveable though. it is only street tuned until next week when the owner of RSmotors (a dyno/tune shop) is back from vacation. right now I'm at 9psi but at full tune I want 12psi. In the long run I would say I'm really happy I went turbo but it took way to long. go dasc..its cool, fast, and can be done in a weekend. __________________ live with boost | | | 07-21-2006, 06:20 PM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2006 Location: Southern California - Orange county Posts: 978 | im gonna look at the Mosselman turbos kits but im also gonna check out the DASC i hear that one alot more then the Mosselman so im guessing its more popular keep me posted with what you guys think. | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
