The only single turbo kit you should buy is the Momentum Performance Kit.

BUT - never buy one used. Always get a new one directly from Momentum. Just give them a ring and they'll hook you riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight up.

You might just be in luck... lowandsteezy has a built block for sale that you could probably swap out in an afternoon- that way you could get your turbonetics kit installed AND a built motor at the same time.

If you PM lowandsteezy just tell him you'll take his block as is and he might drop the price from 4k down to 3 for a quick sale? If you have any audio equipment to trade with him as well he may take more off the price...

No it's not. High compression is the proper way to do it with today's fuels.

Graphs are math. You cannot argue with math. Math does not lie.

People always complain about turbo lag so this is my solution. High compression pistons.

I mean, the way rods are built nowadays, they are so strong they can stand-up to anything.
