Hopefully, this guy plans on doing something his site says.

Little update to this if anyone didn't know. There's a guy over on clubgp.com that has a cartuning turbo kit on his GXP. I guess it's still in the experimental stages, but he says progress is coming along very nicely. Here's a quick video he posted:

turbo kit is nearing production from cartuning. the sts universal kit will work, but you have to change the mass air. aside from this, have fun!

He said he was only running 2-3psi during that video, but it's nice to see there are company's making kits for us, so atleast we have an option.

I just began my turbo setup...

was planning on using the downpipe flange, and make a simple cut, weld on a turbo flange and be almost there.... but just decided to put an ext. wastegate there, and create a new Y to replace the crossover. No real need make new manifolds at this point...

Got my injectors... now need an HPTuners setup, and work out about a million bugs
(will be air/water, my goal is 550whp with zero eng. mods, low boost with very large effecient turbo, but trans if of course an issue, as will be many other things..) =)

Well it might be fun for the first WOT run. But the wheel spin it will have might be the fuse that keeps it alive for a bit. These thing still are wrong wheel drive... I wouldnt want a complete ricer roll racer car in the end.
