As some of you might remember I was planning on installing a turbo kit on my 04 GP. Well it is on and it is amazing. :cool: It is a PT-61 turbo with a air to air intercooler. We dyno'd and hit 384 to the wheels and over 400lbs of torque! :eek: It is stupid fast. :p:

Right now it is a PT-61 turbo with a Garrett air-air intercooler. We put in 42.5pd injectors and a LT1 MAF. Corsa exhaustand ported manifolds. Had we installed the 60pd injectors we would have hit over 400whp. I was maxing the 42.5s. The only reason I didn't install the larger injectors was because I don't need that much power. The way it is now is more than enough. We ran at 15pds of boost. I turned it down to 12 for daily driving.

That was on a dyno,right? Because you 2x'd your speed in about 3 seconds.

Nice setup indeed.

What kind of electric cutout? I have a DMH. Really nice quality and the guy really stands up to his warranties. Doesn't leak either.

Well since it was a R&D project I bought the turbo and IC for about 4gs. I got quite a few freebies and the install and programming was free. :cool:

Gateway's open, but that's probably a 4-5 hour drive for you. http://www.gatewayraceway.com/dragRacing.html

And only 120? My mazda 626 make 118 horsepower back in 94 and she's hit 120. :up2somet: ;) j/k Driving REALLY fast is kind of dumb because it's not really that fun. Just really risky. My car felt like it was going 80, just more wind noise.
