Default Turbo EP3

I don't normally post in this forum but I thought this EP3 was apporpriate enough to fit in well here Recently at ****'s Autospec we finished up our new project and were pretty surprized. Some of the East coast guy's might remember this car from the Hot Import Nights show in Boston but we will be bringing it to the track this weekend with any luck that the weather will be nice.
Anyway, it's a completely stock K20a3 engine, a custom built Peak Boost turbo setup, and tuning done with K-pro.




Beautiful work done by Ken at Peakboost


At 10psi. the car was tuned out to 342whp and 264tq. stock! I feel pretty confident the car could handle 400whp safely. Hopefully that will be next

Our base run on the stock a3 before the turbo setup was 146ish (if I can remember right). Thats almost 200hp gained I know it's capable of more with a little more modification and tuning.

Well, it's not a setup you can buy on the market, it was custom built specifically for THIS car. The only one out there. So, any pricing info would have to be brought up with Ken at Peakboost since he does the work.

Yup, Peakboost posted up some pictures of the job while they were fabricating The only video we have at the moment of is this short clip of a rip through the Boston tunnel. I'm sure there will be more to come along with some track times shortly.
