Is there a turbokit for the 3SGE engine?? i´ve searched alot but havent found anything frown.gif or is there any other way to get more hp under the hood? now i only have an open air filter and 2,5" exhaust. but i want more.. any tip anyone??
i could probably have someone making turbokit for my car but i think it would be to expensive.

You normally run low compress to run high boost which mean more oxygen.

More oxygen means more power.

If you need power and do not want to run alot of boost and serious tuning, higher compression comes into play.

Right now, a 4age 20v with 8.5:1 pistons is dead. Very dead. You have to run atleast 8psi to feel almost the same. But the aim is 18psi. Cannot run that on a normal 11 head. It must be build to handle the heat, which will cause pinging, piston melt down and other things on a normal head.

I have seen what 10-12psi does to forge pistons on 11:1 compression with lack of bas and good cooling.

This is sweet wink.gif
