Nitrous to Turbo
Nitrous to Turbo Guys,
I spent all afternoon reading the sticky threads. They are awesome! Based on all the information there I feel confident that I can put together a solid turbo build. My question is what is the ongoing costs associated with a turbo setup. I ask this because im coming from a heavy nitrous setup and have spent quite the penny on cold air
outside of the motor itself my car runs on a th350 with a transbrake off the line. Cage and all the works to run 9.5s.
I just want a good idea of what it costs to keep a turbo car running at the track or if its an all up front type cost.
Thanks for the help guys

I guess you can just run round after round? (thinking street car shoot out where you can't lift the hood). Water or ice in the pits? Change plugs more frequently? Any tuning required between rounds based on turbo heat?
Whats up fellow bumper dragger? Im converting over right now too. Our cars ran about the same too. Its not cheap but try to find some used parts and that will save you some big cash. I found a bunch of nice turbos on yellowbullet
