#1-You wont get 300-350 out of this kit, youd need a bigger turbo and much more,as well you have to fully upgrade the 5sfe internally as well to hold that kind of power reliably.
#2-300-350hp in a celica for a DD is WAY to much, i mean i suggest driving any kind of either turbo or swapped celica, i would think 250hp would be more than enough in a DD application
#3-With 300hp your gonna go through tires and gas way to much for it to be any kind of practical DD.

just to add my 2 cents I have had my turbo done since august and i beat the hell out of it on a weekly basis it least 3 days a week. nothing has broken or failed on me only complaint is the fuel consumption but that goes along with beating the hell out of it and the premium fuel it requires. *shurgs* its totally worth it to have it turbo its so much fun and spools up fast and has so much power now, I need to up grade my clutch then I will be going to dyno as well to post my results

dude once again you have no clue what you are talking about. this turbo will make 330 HP but thats about its limit. yes the internals (pistons) will need to be upgraded. but 350 FWD driver is just fine. its all in how you drive the car. i drove my 7th gen making 550 as a daily for a year. you can turn the boost down for regular driving and then if some ass in a vette or mustang want to be owned, turn it back up. thats the nice thing about electronic boost controllers.

yes you can go through gas and tires, but then again thats all in how you drive the car.

do you even have a turbo car?

[SupraKid]

At least im not a "kid" anymore.Jeff what turbo are you including in the kits? I was under the impression it was a ct26. And a stock 26 will max out at around 300.Even if it is a 330hp turbo youll need to upgrade everything else to support it, fpr,standalone,pump, intercooler,cams, not to mention itll put a strain on the tranny. And jeff it IS possible to know something without actaully owning it, contrary to popular belief..

how is 300hp to much for a daily driver? 06 mustang GT comes with 300hp, is that not a good DD? lol yes i kno its a v8 but just because its a turbo 4 banger makin 300 or so hp doesnt make it "WAY" to much. it depends on that right foot of yours and how much gas and how many tires you will go through.

and just like he said u can always turn the boost down and turn it back up when you feel the need too

City is about 21-24 highway idk I haven't driven it on a consistent long distance trip to accurately quote that. I do drive it hard though... I'm boosting 8psi

That car was built for 300hp, the suspension,brakes,fuel system, everything. So it will be easy to handle. Yea saying its WAY to much is wrong, but 350whp in a 2700lb fwd car built for 150whp wont be fun.

thats also heavier and rwd.

[Neon90424]

The Stigs DD is like 1000hp

I think what Suprakid is trying to say, is that this specific kit will not make 350hp reliably because it does not include the internals that you both have mentioned as necessary to make that kind of power as a DD. You also stand by your product 100% I'm sure, but then mention an electronic boost controller. If somebody does add in an electronic boost controller to "own a vette or mustang", then will you still back any warranty your kit may have? Does your kit have any type of warranty at all in case something does go wrong even if they did not add anything to it?

[Geddes]

Nice looking kit Smaay!, the manifold welding looks top notch!

[Smaay]

And jeff it IS possible to know something without actaully owning it, contrary to popular belief..

wow you can read stuff on the internet. you have no experience. i have been building turbo cars for almost 10 years now. i know what works and what doesnt. I know whats needed and or required.

I dont like ripping into people but i keep seeing you post bad information. i still love ya man

[SupraKid]

Haha yea Jeff i have no problem with you, now that derrick on the other hand >:\ ..Haha man I have been around turbo cars a lot(meets,helping,just to learn,w.e. and i obviously have way to many hours on the internet, and i helped my brother build up his cobra to over 400rwhp of pure win .

First of all, don't speak for me. I have no problem with Jeff and was asking a simple question regarding the kit he is producing here. It's a question that I would ask any company selling a product people would have to put a large chunk of money into. I was not trying to question Jeff's character or say he's a bad person.

[94XcelicaX]

I should have these ready to go next week. Remeber, if i get a local buyer, ill install it and pay for the dyno

how much the kit run and where you from?

[NYp8tBaller07]

I want soooooo badly. What else would I have to modify to get your kit to work or is it kind of a plug and play thing
