yes i meant the DET. by t28 upgrade you mean just change the turbo? wouldn't i need to do a bunch of other shat with that? i was thinking it would be things like boost controller, front-mount, injectors... that type stuff

with a T28, injectors,FMIC, bigger MAF, and tuning you could put down 200-270 hp easy with big boost numbers
