well i read was that the boost is adjustable. i'm just wondering the max boost the turbine can run at. im hoping 15psi...

[David Draper]

Well, the turbo is tentatively set to produce about 5 psi. The general consensus is that it could be set to 8 psi and work just fine with the stock internals.

The turbo kit will include:

-turbo manifold
-intercooler
-the turbo (duh!)
-blow off valve
-necessary hardware and components
-(if needed) fuel delivery components

The manual will deal with the 5 psi just fine, and the automatic should be okay too, although there is a place that can replace/reinforce your torque converter to handle the extra oomph.

The turbo itself is a T28, which will provide the best balance between spool time and available boost, but that may not suit the needs of someone looking for 15 psi.

If we discover that it won't produce a desired amount of boost, I'll see what I can do about swapping turbos for specific customers....

That's it for now, hope this helps.

BTW, the turbo boost level will be adjustable...

how about a T78? or two?

the auto GT will take 5psi-7psi fine.

What is the estimated date when the turbo kit will be totally ready and being shipped?

Also, what will the price be for the GT kit?

so dave, can we fit a bigger turbo wit the same kit somehow????

im planning to run 5-7psi at first, but when i have more money im gonna do some engine/tranny strengthening and run more boost...

[gt2000quebec]

ok i'm pretty mush sure hot shot headers won't fit with the Turbo.... but do the AEM pulley will fit the Turbo??? maybe a dumb question but i don't wanna buy stuff for nothing.....
