Forced Induction looking to turbo my car

looking to turbo my car

it will be the last step before i start saving up for the ae86 rebirth. ive been reading up but still have a few questions im hoping some people could answer.


1. if i buy one of those bolt ons i would still need to buy a fuel pump and all of those goodies wouldnt i?

2. my engine is on 135k miles on it, would it be a better investment to say 2zz swap it

3. what kind of hp could i expect to see. around 200 is what ive come to gather.

4. how much could/would a custom fabbed kit from someone like tweak cost on average...

i wanna see the corolla fly

id fork over the $3k im just lazy, and it takes care of everything including fuel... just get it tuned.

Hasn't all this been answered in old threads? Tweak charges around 6-7k.

tweak charged someone about 8k or maybe a lil more or a lil less but it was the complete job.

really nice turbo, good design, the fuel pump / injector upgrade and was able to push about 220ish hp on a stocker motor because of the great turbo design.

yeah he said 6-7k but since he is mobile now its going to be harder....i was pretty trashed when i typed that up i dont know why i typed it...

last i heard he was still in savannah georgia.. Just have a fully stock garage when he gets to you and you might be able to work out something with him.

lol so you dont really wanna turbo then?

ITBs

lol, wish i had a vortex around here.

because right now im trying to figure out whats wrong with my engine before i blast it with a turbo.

i paid close to 5K for the full setup only to have the turbo sieze on me due to lack of engine oil. my dad drove it for awhile and never put oil in it. so now its just being driven with a non-operational turbo and cracked housing.

and anyway, right now is the worst time to turbo your car unless you're balllllinn

i am ballin....

ohhhh excuseee meee lol

you havent seen my latest edition to my car......




6spd shift knob!!!

He Is Big Money Now

hahahahaha that thing was free....someone ordered a TRD shift knob for their tacoma so i took it off and they threw it away so i picked it up.

yeah forget tweak, go see vortex. hahaha. i don't see why you would want to turbo the corolla, that car with too much power just wont handle too well in my opinion.

i need to see vortex about alot of things =]

only thing i see wrong is the word investment. nothing would be a good investment when it comes to turbo or motor swap.

the best option would be to just drive your car as is or if you still feel you want to do something then buy a motor, build and then install it.

Cost alot of money... sup vortex long time no chat.

i shall call you tomorrow my good friend. same number?

pickup make me shakey in the pants....haha

moviestar is gonna do some JDM action yo hahahaha
