You spent $2k on a turbo??? I thought top-of-the-line bb/water-cooled GT's were more like $1.2k at the most. What's so special about that HKS?

Jeez man, crazy to spend the dough on HK$, they just sell the same turbo everyone else does, but with their housings on them and mark up the price a grand...heh. Hope it works out!

Ehh... nothing special about the HKS turbo... But i figured... why not? Sure i could have saved money in the long run... with the same power goals i'm looking for... like i said before, "what can i say?"Which reminds me... i've been needing a race bread slogan....

I thought HKS turbo's were the only Dual ball bearing turbos out there?

Dude i'd love to have central florida turbo tune my car... but that's atleast a 16 hour trip down there... I have been suggested to contact Ed of dynotuner.net... they're a little outside of atlanta... I've heard nothing but great things of this tuner

That is a very sweet setup.I live close to louisville,do you think I could come check out your ride when you get it all straight sometime(cough...cough...take me for a ride in that thing).As for tuning I know there are a couple shops around here that have dyno's,but how much experience they have with the RB I'm not too sure about,and I know you want someone with experience with a top notch setup like that one.Actually the place I work at has a dyno,alas its an engine dyno so I don't think thats an option for you.If you ever need any machine work done though,or to just dyno the engine we can help you out,most of the stuff we work on is nhra drag racing engines,but we do all types of very high performance street/racing engine machine work.
