You get what you pay for! Cheap Buy = cheap parts/knock offs... don't get me wrong I believe in finding killer deals but be realistic about what your getting.

The "You get what you pay for" rule doesn't always apply. Case in point, My turbo setup. GT_5_oh, please keep this quiet locally

SSautochrome sucks, though. If the turbo doesn't go somehow, the sticking wastegates will kaboom your engine. Fitment isn't the best, either.

Want a good starter setup? Try this.

I would buy the kit and throw the turbos as far as possible, maybe even light en on fire, they are crap, the bearings they have are straight garbage, anyway and then get two turbonetics, or master power turbos, maybe even a nice garrett.

yeah.. true, ive never been to the track to see what ill run but if i had to bet, i could to mid/low 11's as is but id have to do it a few times first.. everytime i street race i have a hard time getting from 2nd to 3rd.. i hit the wall and miss the whole thing so when i feel im ready and i can get past that ill go to the track.. its the adrenalin rush i get when i race.. instead of letting it go into 3rd i try forcing it and its happen more then one time.. not everytime but more then one!

Unless it was missing, backfiring, running rich, and a mega-fat chick was driving. there's no way you're running 11's. lets see a mod list, please.

you say you're running mid 11's right now, and i call BS.

11's is an H/C/I car with slicks and a hard ass launch, an H/C/I car with giggle gas, 10 pounds of boost and a good driver; and the list goes on. i dont think you have any of those.

It could have been a Ninja 250 those run like 14's in the 1/4 and look like a real crotch rocket the un-trained motorist.

show us a mod list. unless you have extensive engine work I am guessing you run mid to high
13's. stock you have a high 14 sec car, just like the 03 gt
