Turbo, end of story.

I did a DSM turbo on an LS motor, got it all put together and tuned for about $850.

Made 270whp.

Nitroue isn't going to net you what you want.

I wouldn't do an ebay turbo unless it was a used greddy. There are some used brand name kits on the marketplace here going for $800-1200.

homemadeturbo.com

DSM turbo setups can be reliable too. Take a look around that websites and possibly http://www.d-series.org and look at some budget setups.

i would do a NX nitrous kit. 50-100 Shot. Ive had bad expierience with the NOS silenoids and NX silenoids(*spelling) have lifetime warantee. It take no longer than 2 hours to install.

^^ what does your car run? a 15 instead of a 16?



N/a and b16 don't belong in the same sentence.


imo.
