Well like the topic says my dad wanted to make more power with his vette.
i said turbo it. hes like blah blah lag. i had to explain alot has changed with turbos over the years. he dragged raced often when he was younger and said so few cars tried a turbo and they we crap. well i showed him my friends twin turbo 5.0 mustang ( i think its like an 80's one ) and the fact that it makes close to 500hp on 93 octaine gas. so now my dad really wants to turbo it lol. so what im asking is how big of a trubo(s) should he get for a 3 This post has been edited by x_itchy_b_x: Dec 23, 2005 - 6:44 PM -------------------- |

exactly how much power does your dad want to make?
does he want to keep the car carb'ed? get pics from all angles of the engine bay and from underneith the car. its gonna be hard to find a place for two turbos(atleast any of size that will be worthwhile) edit: most important question of all, whats the budget like. going off of what its costing to turbo my friends 67 mustang, i would say he will need to spend $5k minimum This post has been edited by 97sccelica: Dec 24, 2005 - 8:22 PM -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
