Turbo 8 at Garage R

Saw this black 8 there with a turbo installed. According to the mech,it should be getting 0.4 boost. Very cool. Was just wondering who owns it.

I guess so. Most of his goodies are HKS. Think the car should be ready this week. The turbo set is 6k.

6K is still not including the ECU so maybe you may be putting yourself well over 10K after getting the V pro.

I believe the turbo is the Greddy one.

HKS is working on a supercharger kit - that wld be interesting too, no turbo lag.

Lester from Garage R claims that with the turbo installed, the 8 can get 270 hp. Not sure whether true or not. Lets wait till the owner of the black 8 try it out.

Unless they go for the "leg" between your legs.....then don't have to steal.
