How much did the turbo kit itself cost you with all of the upgrades and parts you needed and added?

Also what were your final power numbers with this kit and the boost you were running?

Thanks Man, Amazing Job and an Amazing Ride!!!


Matt if your really interested go check out Josh's website or better yet call him. He is very cool and will explain and price quote it all on the phone with you. Im doing my build after the first of the year!

Sorry for the hijack.

I paid $3600 at the time but I already had the turbo. I still don't have final numbers for the car. This year was nothing like last year when it came to my income (about 1/2 as much) so I haven't been able to finish the car yet. But it looks like things are picking back up so maybe I can get this thing running full tilt before the end of the year.

Like the other guy said call Josh, he will help you out the best he can. He offered to redo the up pipe free when I have the fitment issue(cause by me using a t-76 and not a tc-76, he didn't know about).Now he offers an A/C now which is what I would have gotten if he had it when I ordered mine. Google his shop for info and give him a call.

Josh does seem to do real good work and is still the most affordable turbo kit. Alot of other kits that need custom headers perform about the same or worse that josh's kits. Plus if you have the cash it seems like he can do whatever you can dream of.

I would think it is a unit that pulls timing...which is alittle hard on the turbo.

When he gets the bigger blower put on I'm sure we will give it another go.

9.40s was that at 770 rwhp like he was mentioning? On a 3" downpipe?

Yes. It had plenty more in it. I miss that car, so I am building another one. Bigger and better.
