Re: Question for the turbo gurus out there

Keep in mind that a GT4294 can do 850whp, so if you goto a smaller billet turbo that can do 800-850whp, then you really aren't going to gain more power unless you improve other parts on the car or run better gas and turn up the boost.

Did Swifty ever put a good intercooler on that car? I remember the one that was on it when he had the car was not very efficient. I would switch the car to DSMLink too.

Ok that's good to know that the 4294 is capable of that much. And yes he did put a better intercooler in it and went from 1650cc injectors to 2150s. I'll double check if he changed anything else. I also had the head ported and polished. I think that's it for upgrades though. I'll keep link in mind and look into what I need to do to switch
