With that said... mod lists? A LOT more done to the TVS car than done to the Turbo car. There was less than $2500 under the hood of the turbo car.

My set-up has since been optimized and improved for the better. Since Area dumped his car... if any TVS car wants to fill his place in a rematch... you're more than welcome.
Offer has already been extended to one. My car has already pulled on one E85 TVS car. Guess its record is 1-1 vs TVS cars.
I was hitting upwards of 5* of Knock Retard on that run. The car didn't like the gas there. Was noticeably misfiring and pulling timing in 4th. Stayed in it though... for the sake of the race. Car has smoked a little bit ever since then.
blah blah blah...
tvs kit = $2200 then you have to add in all the other parts if you want to be over 275whp
I paid $2600 for a real garrett turbo kit all the way down to a tune that put down 320whp/330wtq, that included EVERYTHING even with a new aem intake. after changing over some of the parts to aftermarket, i have 360whp and still below $3k. the machinist is almost done with my second motor and then i'll be able to bump up to 450whp+ with the push of a button.
and lastly, i chime in for the same reason you chime in trying to say how superior a tvs is; the only difference is that my opinion is right and yours is not.

at least you weren't rolling smoke out of the ass end at the stop light after our little run in with a DUI check point
if you were to have read the entire thread, you would of noticed i said im new to the whole forced induction world. thus my reason for wanting to find a company that makes an actual turbo kit instead of me having to break my head in figuring all the parts id need. its a forum for a reason. its a place where people come to find answers to their questions so if you dont have an answer for my question, dont respond! i just want to know where i can find a full turbo kit for my 06 balt. im interested in the kit selfinfliction said he bought for $2600. thank you to all who have given me great info to work with.
If you want a ready made kit, be prepared to fork out some more cash then. Contact Matt M or Ryan@ZZP and they will help you out with that.
And I highly doubt that selfinfliction bought a full kit. He's a rather smart guy, so I figure he probably pieced together a kit like I did. That's about the only way to do it for that small of an amount.

I'm pretty close to, if not over, 350wtq... and its not useless on street tires. No, I can't come off line using my 2-step... but the car only spins through 2nd gear... and even then, the car is still accelerating hard. Set your car up properly and you won't spin all day.
