Turbo?? How much HP?? Options

[ToYCeLi8]

Well i know that there are different types of turboes and they vary from car to car. So i was wondering if someone can give me an average HP increase that the turbo will add? Or more specifically how much will these turbo kits add and are theyt worth it? Or do i just do the 3sgte swap???...

QUOTE (97sccelica @ Mar 26, 2003 - 7:17 PM) generally it is said that 11psi adds 100hp  but it varies depending on how efficient your turbo is, what your exhaust is like, how big of an intercooler you have, etc.  on the burien site it says that they were at 12 psi with no problems and that is non intercooled, so it could probably take more psi and make power more efficiently my god 12 psi unintercooled and on stock 5s internals???!! you'll blow the engine to hell with that. 5 psi unintercooled is as much as you should get. what you do depends on what you want! if you want mad power potential, go 3sgte. if you just want a little more oomph, turbo.

you are right Charlie, but i am pretty sure that they added an intercooler

so if you add an intercooler to the burien kit, supposedly you can run around 12psi.

but remember, do your research.
