turbo questions...

[paxton86]

hey just picked up a gt45 t4 turbo, and gotta couple of questions.

How much am i looking at for an install and tune? provided i have all the parts, minus piping.

Its on a stock 302, with 150,000 miles. i cant decide between a stroke, or just running stronger internals, and i know it would be better to do it all at once. Im not going to beat it to death, but i want it on NOW. ive wanted a turbo mustang for quite a while, and now theres a turbo camaro ss runnin around. whats a safe boost to run at? 8?


thanks guys.

all you have is a turbo without the piping? and you want to know how much to have some one install it?

if that is the case your best off ordering a kit from someone.

how much do you want to spend?

ive got it all, i just need the intercooler piping and the hot side piping.

not to worried about the install, more worried having the piping bent and the tune.

I would recomend that you take a look at turbomustangs.com
there is an insane amount of good info on there about turbos, anything you could ever want to know about turbos is on this website. just make sure to use the search button before asking questions because they are pretty hard on people that don't use the search button.

also a few companies to check out would be B&G turbo http://www.bgturbokits.com
or Ponydown performance http://www.ponydown.net

both brian (B&G) and Jeff (ponydown) are great guys. they both post on turbomustangs.com (B&Gcustomturbos/ ziptie007) and if you do a search on them you will see that there are a lot of happy customers from both of them. brian will probably have the fastest turn around. but since your kit will be a custom one it may take a while. It may even be easier for you to sell what you have and just buy a kit but you should give them a call and see what they can do for you.

good luck!
