Actually the upkeep is the same. Change the oil every 3,000 miles and thats it. Modern ball bearing turbos will last as long as your car will Superchargers will have the same kind of maintenance plus you have to keep an eye on your belts...I've taken my turbo Z on 4+ hour road trips without any issues..

 

shoot, I just did normal maintenance on my IS300... oil changes went from syntehntic and 3k instead of normal 5k, but thast it. I drove a ton 20+ hour trips in that thing

 

Im sorry this might have been answered already but i couldnt find it. is the kit smog legal?

 

It should be soon. Turbonetics has a car they are submitting to CARB for testing to get a cert...looks like its going to pass...

 

The turbo kit removes the stock air box correct? If Turbonetics gets thier kit CARB'd

Turbonetics=GAWD... or a part of a wealthy mob family.

 

Yes it does... and yes they are trying for it...I've talked to CARB reps lately and apparentely as long as there are no OBDII codes popped, it passes the sniffer even on cold start, and there is a cat on the car you can pass CARB. It appears they have gotten more lax then in the past.. A twin turbo kit for Z just passed carb with all kinds of parts replaced. It seems the CARB guys may be a bit more lax then in the past... Good news for Turbonetics...

 

And my suspicions have been confirmed...

Turbonetics must be owned and operated by the Gili's The california Cheese and wine crime syndacit formally known as "The Pantablet" Who had distinguished members such as:
The Vatican
The Rockafellers
and The Colonel before he went **** up.

 

...











WHAT!?!?!

 

Actually no, but I'm not sure where you are going with this...Its pretty funny though..

 

Its an impressive kit. But I'll hold off for the actual cert to go through b4 i purchase this kit. t3/4 hybrid turbos have powered many blazing fast cars. Like searl tate's 12.3 1/4 200 sx wich was 50 state legal.

 

Dang...

 

Yeah the turbo in this kit can easily flow 400+ worth of air...

 

I need to get this dag-on second job.. my friggin car is eating my pockets off my pants I'd love to get turbo'd before NOPI... ugh!

 

LOL thats cars bro..I haven't owned a car I didn't mod since high school....I wonder how much I've spent on all of it...eh...it doesn't even matter. If it puts a smile on your face when you drive it thats all that matters...

 

"If it puts a smile on your face when you drive it thats all that matters..."
Thats frickin beutiful man

 

 

need... money... NOW.
I already got a price on it and got an installer ready to do this... now all i need is 4700 bucks.

 

How much do the buy kidneys for again? j/k
