Turbo envy
 
I was driving by the dyno located at East Mall near sherway and I figured I'd stop in and find out what his rates were. While I was there this dude had his turbo charged Type R on the dyno. Man the sound of this car was pure sickness with the turbo spoolin and all. I talked to the owner of the car and he told me he had a Mitsubishi turbo running @ 8 lbs of boost and he was putting down something like 230 to the wheels. Man I want a turbo badly.

ya they aren't all that expensive if you dont care about big names or kits...

I friend of mine has a turbo off of a Talon sitting around and I think he wants 200 bucks or something but thats just one piece to the puzzle. Man this car shyte is expensive. Long gone are the days of having extra money, it seems like I work just for my car but I guess thats preety much the same for every enthusiest.

I have a whole bunch of stuff for a homemadeturbo setup. I have 2 turbos (gt17, K03), intercooler, bov, std manifold, misc piping for sale...if interested let me know. I will sell it all for pretty cheap too.

Homemade turbo set ups are cheap as hell.
I had a set up drawn up for about $2000.

The G2 Racer 10-Apr-2004 06:52 PM

Hey man.. where you there on Friday in the afternoon?

I was there too. I was the guy that was going into the Go Karting place next door with the black Civic and the red Eclipse.

I was sitting on the ground next to the blonde girl.

Mr. Death 11-Apr-2004 07:06 PM

I was there around 9 pm or so. How are the go carts @ that place?

NoSpleeny 11-Apr-2004 08:12 PM

The go carts are kinda shoddy... .. the old ones.. the new ones are good.

It's VERY easy to kick the back end out on those carts :p

The G2 Racer 11-Apr-2004 11:27 PM

That's the fun of ProKart......drifting the damn things around.

Mr. Death 11-Apr-2004 11:40 PM

I've been to formula 1 Cartways and their cars are preety sick. Time to check out the place on east mall.

Yeah Neetronics is a good dyno place. The go karting next door is cool too. And yes you can drift those mofos like crazy.


You should see some of the cars Paul ( I think that's his name) does. His buddy has an Imprezza RS with almost 400hp.

blk93si 12-Apr-2004 12:14 PM

that type r is putting out more then 230hp to the wheels, its a full built motor,

you should see what my buddies s4 does on that dyno :p
