Yeah thats what i was thinking too, just would like to confirm with op because i'm kind of thinking boost (daily) within the next couple years

Yea its definitely an ebay kit no doubt about it, I did my research before purchasing the kit however.

The kit is a Godspeed D-Series Kit and cost me $1175, but i have spent money on other things to make the kit as reliable as possible.

o i just saw the Godspeed bit.
i think the first thing i would change to make it more reliable is the manifold.
they dont look too strong.

[fezzy101]

YEa I totally agree, I think the weak links on the kit is the manifold and the external wastegate.

So I'm going to fun it and get everything working first and then get a completely custom one made at hurricane.

I have an aftermarket oil cooling kit which i want to install also.

good on ya for boosting it, considering its for track only, go crazy, should defs go for vitara build an shoot for 200kw, since u already pulled out ac an most other parts even the reo-bar to fit the cooler n turbz

should def consider brakes, clutch, radiator on the mods list as well... pointless running turbo if u dont have the back up parts to make it a whole package

Note the car weighs about 850kws, so still better then a b swap, so far.

That's alot of power for weight :P

[fezzy101]

Yea I have already got a stage 2 clutch kit sitting on my desk. But the car needs to be working before I install it.
Yea the car hasnt got allot left in it, its pretty track orientated. I think ill be happy with 140kws for now, considering its a huge jump from stock, ill train to drive the car on the track and then go for more power.

As I have learnt ypu dont need stacks of power to go fast. 1:13.5 fastest lap around wakefield na. Im shooting for sub 1:10s with the extra power
