Search the Forced Induction forum.

Forget the STS garbage.

BTW, a 13 second 1/4 mile in an ITR can be done with bolt-on's.

Don't do a rear mount. Inefficient as hell, I don't know how you'd plumb oil lines, and it'd just be one more thing to break from road debris.

GReddy kit with intercooler and Hondata is good for 12's if you have good tires and a good driver. I had neither, and ran a 13.3@113.

This rear mount kit has come up here again and again. All you'll ever hear is hearsay and bashing, no first person real world experience.

the point is, why buy an ITR if your intentions are to boost it? Who said my intentions were to boost my car when I bought it? </TD></TR></TABLE>

who's to say what his intentions were? why not boost the precious ITR?

Because someone who "knows what he's getting into" with regards to turbocharging an ITR would already know the answers to all of the questions you posed in your original post. I don't think it was intended as a derogatory comment, just a legitimate question to determine if you had actually researched the topic at all.
