Time to begin my Turbo Build.

Just a bit more money and I'll be good to go. Going with the ZZP stage two. Ill be running low boost until I upgrade my internals. Also getting a oil pan with the bung already attached so I still can go back to stock if i ever need to.

Hopefully by summer it will be turboed. Wish me luck!

Same here..My car stands out, and I usually keep the cutout open so it loud. I was actually at a stop light with one on the highway. Light turned green and I was waiting for him to go on and go before I took off, ended up he was doing the same. I actually waited there like 5-10 seconds until he just flew off.

true true

And the biggest difference between stage 1 and 2 is the intercooler. Stage 2 puts out more

power but to run high psi, one would need to upgrade internals as well. Basically stage 1 is for

someone who just wants a turbo and a 200+ hp car and calls it a day . Stage 2 is for

someone who wants a 200+ hp car with the potential for upgrading for more power.

Personally, I'm going with stage two because if I wish to upgrade my engine internals, I'll be

able to do just that and simply up the boost. Its all subjective on what your future plans are.
