You will see the base line dyno and the after install turbo kit shows a difference of about 100 HP...

most people with the hahn kit put about 260-270 at the wheels. So its around 100 hp difference.

Thats very impressive. Now I've found this kit from 3800ish to 4100ish. What are the benifits to buying a full kit like this than buying piece by piece to make my own kit? I have a friend that builds turbos for older Supra's (mk3 or something) and he said it would be very easy and ALOT cheaper for him to piece on together for me..

Upgrade the turbo to a 2871 for some more top end power

Im pretty sure a 35 won't bolt to a 28's manifold, which is why I suggested that one. The 71 would be more then enough fun for a stock block car

Not to get too far OT but what turbo you going with Glen?? Def that 50 trim?

all i can do is give you some valuable advice lol

Your comparing apples to oranges, if you LIKE your car then turbo it, if your already thinking about trading it then get something of a different platform, because one you invest in the turbo kit the car is yours lol more then likely figure out what you want to do before you spend the money
