You could throw a second water core in the charge path. $150 new or so. Oooo, and add a second radiator.

water path:
rad1 -> pump -> core1 -> rad2 -> pump2 -> core2

I just like complicated stuff. Pumps would be redundant but help decrease pressure at the outlets, which would let them flow more.

I think you and I already went over this in my other thread. Let me find it lol.

I know it can be done, but without a second rad the second core wouldn't be doing much.

I would also need a longer braided line to attach my fuel rails like Steve got.

My blower would probably clear the hood because of my hood scoop but the throttle body would hit.

I bought the black sleek seam one but he has different styles.
How is the fit? He seems like a good seller and you like yours, I will probably get one from him. [/b]
Fitment is great. I highly advise putting it on before you install the turbo. It will be loads easier.

Boy would I like to do one of these set ups on my ride. The intercooled turbo on my Cruiser turns that little engine into a monster compared to the standard N/A 2.4 in my Mom's PT. Making that big a difference on my ride would be a blast. (plus I get to add those cool "turbo" badges) laugh


Uhh...no air filter on the turbo inlet?...not sure thats very smart.

What chu talkin' bout? Those tiny pebbles that get sucked up in there sharpen the impellers and thus makes the turbo more efficient, DUH! hammer hammer

lol j/k. I think he has a metal filter thing that keeps large objects out of it, but yes a nice dry media filter like an Amsoil would be a good investment.

Tbat, if the turbo on that 2.4 makes a difference, just think of the smile that a turbo 3.8 will put on your face.

Eh filters bogs it down to much so I put a Drop in filter behind the headlight lol. At least I'm not like the supra's around here who run wide open lol.

I may run a foam filter idk. I'm switching BOV's soon too the Tial is cool but I'm either going with the Greddy Type S or HKS SSQV idk yet and then gunna do a cutout.

Oh if you need help running the vac lines I have pics too.

You know you want to Steve, it will pay for itself in fuel economy! wink

Look at 2Fast4U's MPG, 20 ish MPG on the highway? Some turbo'd GP's are making the same HP, same ET's and higher traps as him but with 30 mpg.

I need their tunes then cuz I net 22 highway on 93 oct with only racing a little. I may need to swap 02's out I guess.

And He is running leaded extremly high octane no one will expect good mpg.

I think air filter is behind left fog light as FWI? I could see black pipe is all way down to left fog light. I could be wrong.

Shh, i'm trying to convince him. :p

I was just using 2fast4u as an example though, look anywhere and you will see that a 300 whp turbo GP will get better economy than a 300 whp m90'd GP. It's just that the m90 is not nearly as efficient when having to work so hard to make that much power.

Chris, foam filters are ugly :p

Plus you need a monster cam with a S/C setup.
