Just one quick comment. You could run a custom twin turbo without issue, but it just plain isn't worth it if you are trying to achieve the power with the most cost effective method.

Shoot, I've seen LS1 equipped cars running EIGHT turbos!

To be honest, there is no good reason to ever twin turbo the 1.5. That doesn't mean it isn't possible, or that someone with more money than sense couldn't do it.

im impressed he did it with a stock engine.

i had mine built inside out, then dropped in the turbo and STILL had issues until the very last day.

i think it actually ran great maybe 3 weeks out of several months.

seems like theres starting to be a handful of 200+ xbs now.

when i had mine it was when zpi was pushing their xb, and i think i was the 1st or 2nd. everyone gave me crap even with dyno sheets. i had videos on youtube but i dont know if they are still there.

i think its becoming more accepted that the 1nz can put out some power. id love to see a 300whp 1nzfe.

200whp on a Dynojet really means nothing to me. We are aiming for 210whp on our Dyno Dynamics machine.

It wasnt rude. Im just trying to let guys see the big picture. We just had a guy put down 300whp on a ** dyno, then came to us and put down a whopping 180whp. If anyone thinks they have a 200whp xb, give me a call. I will dyno your car for free. I warned you guys about certain turbo set ups and kits before (3 years ago?). Some listened and some didnt. Well, where is that company now?

Agreed. So many dynos have jacked up calibration, it's so common. DynoDynamics tend to be the most accurate, but at the same time, shops still jack with the calibration on those ( one exapmle iv'e heard.. Ripmods)

There are probably only a handful of dynos out there that are dead on. Only a few shops out there atually take the time to ensure correct dyno calibration. The dyno I go to, is a $100,000 set-up, it is true and it is the only dyno I go to now because it is the only one I trust... it is one of 2 or 3 in the country. I've been on other dynos and the read super high... my 1/4 mile times didnt relect those #'s at all.

So when somebody posts on here that they have a 170 plus whp xA or xB, I over look it, until I see then at the track and I race them, those #'s don't mean anything.

LOL.. no butt dyno.

Car was built and dyno'd by a professional shop here in Canada.

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...m=120218364427

I am selling the setup because i plan on putting a different motor so make more power. I would like to get into the 500+ HP range. A fully built AE111 Levin blacktop motor would do this. I have already priced the build for the new motor at approx. 16,000CND.

If the motor doesn't sell by spring it looks like i'll part the entire thing out. But its really a shame to do so.

All the specs are in the listing. Turbo is a GT28RS.

Maybe his butt is sensitive. Impressive motor and set-up. If i had the $ i'd buy it from u right now. I like people who pop up outta no-where with crazy setups, kudos

Thanks man! I'll get some photos of the complete car once the snow melts here... I hate winter.
