ALL MOTA vs. TURBO

first thing you need to do is get a compression test from a shop. if the results are acceptable, then turbo it.

quik- you mention that it's safe to run 8psi boost. I thought that the Greddy turbo is 40-50 psi. Isn't that a safe amount to run on a otherwise stock car? How much extra hp would an 8psi boost add?

GReddy kit is preset at 5.5 psi which is equivalent to 40-50 hp gain, NOT 40-50 psi.......
GReddy TDO4h-15G can actually max out at around 12-14 psi.

a good rule of thumb is 1 psi boost is equal to 10+/-2 hp gain.
get your compression checked, and e-mail or PM me for turbo info. i can hook you up with any GReddy info that you need plus my GReddy kit is self-installed.
