    Man, I'm starting to think 15psi turbo hits on my stock motor aren't out of the question. I might be able to sneak 10's out of a stock motor! That would be sweet.

    Nick, beat that sucker! You are helping inform, and inspire us all!

    I don't know why you can't put 15psi into a stock motor, the question is how much CFM is in that 15psi....I pump 30plus into my stock 4cylinder...and that car makes 400 ft/lbs and around 360-400hp on boost only....and it makes over 500 ft/lbs on nitrous, these are numbers are at the wheel. And I run almost identical turbo on that car, as you have in your twin kit for the 350.

    Hint, Hint....to anyone reading this thinking about buying one of Mark's twin turbo kits......Big Block Crushing Torque is only 10-15psi away....if I can make 300 ft/lbs with my car making 14-15psi boost on my 2.5ltr...with a crappy cylinder head, think about what 2 of these will do on a Buick 350 with even just stock heads. My 4 cylinder flows 180I/140E....at .500 lift. Do the math


    Mark I'd really like to see you get your car to the track. I know you realize that numbers could help your sales greatly.

    Hmm, and if Sonny can make way over 500 hp with ported 350 iron heads.... How would those heads like 10psi?

    Nick, I hear you. If I had a track closer, even an 1/8 mile, I would be there all the time. It will end up costing me about $250 to run it. I still have a few details to wrap up before it will be worth the expense.

    In these times, I have a hard time finding time and money, especially at the same time! :) That said, i do plan to run it in the spring after I get the trans back in with the new converter and some beefing up.

    I also think it is just a matter of time before more guys have their kits installed and finished. Even without track times for everybody, the seat of the pants testimonies will help.

    I wish more guys lived near me and could at least go for a ride in it. The car has a Jeckyl and Hyde personality. Mellow enough for a smooth cruise, and violent enough to have some fun.

    I did not know nitrous made that much difference. That is crazy. I wish I had a 350!

    I understand, its not cheap for me to race either. Track is 130 miles each way, I have to cross 2 Bridges(tolls), New jersy turnpike(toll), track race cost 200$, 150$ in nitrous. A race day for me is typically 4-500$.

    Yeah, that's a lot. I'm just wanting to catch some test-n-tune nights for now.

    I understand, for us its hard to get to the track so we rent it privately a couple times a year and get a seasons worth of passes for most people in one day. I've yet to make less then 18 passes on a track day, and that was only becuase I blew the intermidiate shaft on the starting line that day.
