We have a Kit figured out and running around making some power. The daily tune is over 350whp at this point.
There will be more on turbo kits in the coming weeks.

The Base kit uses the factory intercooler. It's actually pretty effiecient when it comes to pulling the heat out.

This future turbo for the 2.4 as well? 300+ to the ground is what I am looking for, TC or SC . Although a turbo might be easier on a clutch?What is the efficiency range of the turbo you are using,and where is the air intake located (stock loc.)?

is it also using the empty s/c as the manifold? i know the actual intake manifold, and the intercooler are connected, so i guess you'd have to remove the rotors from the s/c and leave it on there?

if we make a turbo kit for the 2.4, you will need a new clutch for sure, we would aim for around 350WHP.

intake on the 2.0 turbo is to the left of the engine

no not gutting the SC.

There's two options here

1. manifold that bolts on top of the lower intake manifold (cheaper option)

2. new lower intake manifold which will flow a lot more with intercooling built in

Na I doubt they would do that, im pretty sure it uses a setup close to that of TAG's, but I could be mistaken.....

Werd, there is a TAG turbo balt pushing 406hp I believe, dont know how long it would last but 350hp sounds good for a safe tune, w/ the right IAT2's you should be good

not sure about the 406hp, I would say that's crank

IAT2's are amazing on a turbo, 111*F at full WOT

So if i wanna stay with stock internals, i think that 350 whp with a turbo and stock internals is still cheaper then buying a twinscrew and replacing the internals that just what i think anyone have any other ideas or opinions on that

anyone else i am not trying to make it look like the twinscrew is bad but if i wanna save some money would it be safer to go with the turbo kit honestly i love the supercharger cause i like my power now instead of waiting for the turbo to spool up
