renesis do u have a problem or u cnt keep ur dumb rants to uself? i found some greddy kits on this website for 3,400 but i would still need to buy a wastegate and blow-off valve..i saw one that has a piggyback for the fuel that spose to add 60 horsepower. idk im going to hit my local speed shop and ask them if they can install and dyno and possibly find me a turbo kit for my car. idk..im not turboing it for at least 8-9 months. just researching now..so im ready when its time.

piggyback? 60 HP... you need to research A LOT more, if you think you can get that without a turbo

How can I keep it to myself when some one as stupid as you can't even bother to look up detailed threads of the past when everything from A to Z is covered? Especially when you said you run a 13b ported with nawz in 11 seconds? I'm skeptical as to if you are a troll or not.

No one here likes piggy backs on the 8. Do a search on it. They don't give much gains... why you ask? Do a search.
