sounds like a good idea....building a turbo motor for the street that will last. how come you dont want to piece together your own kit?

Right now i am going to school and working full time. I dont have time to search for all the parts and have them come at different times. I want the whole kit together so i could take off a day at work and install it then make an appointment at a nearby dyno to get it tuned then break in then tuned again

Dont mind all the imature kids in here..... its your car do with it how you want.

The best kit for you will be a Full-Race or Peakboost..... both of them are full kits and you will be able to upgrade the turbo if you want to later on down the road. PM me if you need anymore help

10k for the turbo set....built bottom end.....why are you only going to run 6psi??? Thats about the dumbest damn thing i've heard all day. Take the engine apart, get it sleeved, buy an $8k turbo setup and go to town. You could have a lot of power if you'd allot your money correctly

you can push a lot more power out of a stock engine than you think....thats one of my regrets about my build....9psi....i should have run 12-14psi on stock

Not everyone desires an 11 second street car you know. A truly wise man will know that 8psi street driving is much, much safer than 12-15psi street driving. Running low boost is a good idea on a nice street build I think. It gives you leverage and room for mistakes without devastating your motor. Get a boost controller and use Hondata with whatever setup and you'll be pleased. Set two boost settings..one for 8psi and the other for higher boost settings in the rare occasion that you decide to leave that Mustang behind (just use high boost in 3rd, 4th, and 5th gears)...Besides, in short, drag style races (not roll ons)--&gt; you'll leave those high torque FWD cars behind because they are useless from 1st to 3rd gears. I respect your decision..and I think I'll follow in your footsteps one day soon.

right on right on. I'm not trying to bust your *****. I'm just trying to tell you there is a more economical way to go about your turbo setup. Take the extra money and put it into your tranny and suspension setup. 300whp in a light car with proper suspension is perfect on the street.......but you'll want more power heheheh

If you only want a fun street car i would get a Edelbrock kit as it is more suited to your needs.Full Race is awesome but more intended for the guy looking to make big power.The Victor X kit is everything but the engine management which is perfect as your local tuner can take care of that with whatever he/you prefer Sadly on the street alot of the time more then 300whp just gets Supra style results

Why not just get like a profec B, and a baller turbo kit like a full race that'll let you make some huge power. Run the low boost setting while you're cruising around the street.. If you feel a little naughty switch over to high boost and hold the expletive on!

I never thought making this decision could be so time consuming. Some of the xtra cash i was going to use for a big brake kit, and a traction bar with stronger axles.

Do you guys know how much power or torque the stock axles can take?

Honestly, instead of buying axles, buy a lsd and a solid clutch(competition, exedy....) If you snap an axle(which I doubt) grab a napa axle for $60.00

Why build a motor for high boost, only run 6 psi of boost, and still want to pay waayyyyy more than necessary. If anything I'm trying to slap some sense into him </TD></TR></TABLE>

Maybe he has the money now, and wants to do everything right? He wants 6 psi now, but since the HT bandwagon is all about "get a bigger turbo, you want more boost in the future, you'll get bored with the power, or you'll want more power later", seems wise to get a kit and a built motor that he could grow on

Hey man, I'm far from the HT bandwagon. I think its great hes doing it right, but he doesnt have to spend too much for a solid street setup....you oughta no that. But hey man, if he wants to drop 10 g's, have at it
