Its an ok start considering I started at 129whp bone stock n/a 3 years ago. 315whp 416lbft those are pretty good numbers! I really don't know which turbo to go with yet. I came across a good deal on a turbo 3 months ago and snagged it . Was a Turbonetics t3/to4e Ceramic BB polished sg.3 wheel .63 a/r but after think and think I sold it..haha I didnt think it would get me were I want to be

I think im either going to go with a sc61 or a 35r something along those lines

Its not 100% yet but I do plan on it. Was thinking about doing a top mount turbo with one of SATANS manifolds so the A/C would have to go. The Z isnt my DD either so on hot days Ill just keep driving my pimp 94 sentra haha
