Turbo GT!!!!!!!!

Hints_The_Name · July 26th, 2008, 07:22 PM

Serouisly I am not super car guy an want to no exactly why people havent tackled this on the GT I mean people are getting it done to there GS right and left. Also I want to know exactly what is needed to do a kit(dont leave off anything lol) and a place on where to get all this stuff. I might be interested in doing a custom turbo for a GT. I would have to look after my budget after Jenny gets here job (one is lined up but has to do some schooling starting next week for 16 weeks) and I buy the G37. If in my budget to afford a GT I will be doing a build but dont know much about turbos such as what all is needed

So its not even possible? Well rain on my parade

dentedz71guy · July 26th, 2008, 07:42 PM

meh, I think it's possible but that's one of the biggest challenges people have faced with the GT...with the right amount of bending and relocating it probably can be done but that remains to be disovered.

spyder8213 · July 26th, 2008, 08:52 PM

Not a bad price for all the work done to it!

What makes it hard is the HOT SIDE PIPES.

Manifolds and all your hot side pipes have to be custom bent, welded, and crafted. It takes alot of time and money to get this kinda of work done and theres no guarantee that its every gona be quality work.

If someone just made the Hot Side pipes for our cars this would be a hell of alot easyer to do. And cheaper.

I'm still in the planing stage of my turbo setup but i'm still not even 100% i'm gona do it. I'm gona be boosted one way or anouther just not sure if its gona be turbo or blower yet

I am honestly trying to buy that car right now but cant get a hold of the guy

spyder8213 · July 26th, 2008, 09:04 PM

Hints, that would rock if you got that car!! Good luck with it.

Live4- I know what you mean. There's turbo kits for the GS, but I don't know if I want the hassle of the ECU people are having. I'm going FI for sure, but not sure which road.

you may want to get in touch with Mike at RRE and get his opinion on this car since he helped build it (i think).
