Blue Lightning needs a New Tornado Machine [turbo]
Posted: Mon Jun 06, 2011 12:36 pm
Okay, now that I've just about paid for the engine I had rebuilt oh so long ago, It's time to give this bad boy some more pep. So I'm looking for suggestions on a new turbo.
Ar Fab told me that the engine can now withstand up to 500bhp. I don't need anywhere near that much in a daily driver. Basically I'm looking for a turbo that could give me the highest output while still allowing me to keep a TMIC. Front mounts are cool and all but I like having a front bumper. If I need a bigger TMIC, fine. So long as I can still close my hood (and don't lose air conditioning).
Also, are there any preparations I should make before the new turbo goes on? Like injectors, gaskets, or anything?
