Default Just installed my Greddy turbo kit....

WoW a Turbo is alot of fun! Just runnin the 7.8 boost with the type 24v IC....very nice, boost feels great and the BOV is just awesome!! Just ordered a Turbo Timer and will probbaly get it dyno tuned this month. I havent floored it yet cause I guess im letting everything settle and kinda afraid to. but oyther then that the engine sounds great. Any questions or recomendations on what I should do next to better tune my turbo...Im keeping the greddy blue box seems to work good...and not planning on doing more boost yet.

True dat. I actually just took off my Greddy turbo kit from my DA (modified it to fit in there) and since it had less room than a DC chassis, it got really hot under the hood so invest in some good cooling system products.

it took us a very long time cause i bought the kit used and didnt have all the parts...so i had to make a few trips to the local autozone...day one took like 15 hours...then after that about 8 more hours......a turbo timer just keep youe engine pushing oil thru the turbo after u turn your engine off .....oh anyone know about how long after i get done driving to sit there and let it cool down with the engine running? thanks
