Blackrat Posted May 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 you cant wait, gees you should see how i feel ... i think im gonna start a new post on how im doing my turbo setup .. i think some peeps might find it interesting on how to turbo a car, only thing is its gonna be a long slow process as i need to get another car firstly and to buy the parts at the right price secondlyit aint gonna go woosh for a while twist , not going to have a Bov valve untill i lower the compression and really boost it , so its gonna sound like the rally cars, with the chi chi chi soundgarg , i have already got a saddo bonnet , you wanna try it on your car ?
