My ultimate goal is not a specific HP number. Rather, a faster more agile tC.

If I was, I'd build the engine completely.

I'm going for a road race/weekend street racer.

Even if thats what your going for Turbonetics is NOT the way to go. To many problems. Seriously like AEN said check out TurboToyota's kits(www.WhyIndustries.com) or Dezod kits.

Those are high quality and are proven to give ya what yoiu want.

The only thing I can find with Turbonetics is blown seals in the turbos. And according to a few, a water cooled turbo instead of oil cooled will solve that problem (for awhile).

yea but since your list is extensive as it is why not go for something that is proven to work 110%?

minus the tune of course. plus, you get the added benifit of both companies being on hte boards and ready to help you at hte drop of a key.

both also offer the option of water cooled turbos...

I have a local Turbonetics dealer in Houston. I can just go there and swap out turbos if I have a problem.

Do a pillar gauge pod instead of the center pod. Other than that, good luck, can't wait to see how it turns out.

I'm not a fan of the pillar pods. I like the ATI Center Gauge pod much much more.
