VE SS Turbo,,,

[al..]

Hey guys n girls

Thoughts in the back of my head wanting a turbo kit for my ve ss..

Has anyone got this set up or experienced with this set up?

Main concern is reliability I need it to be a daily drive (shopping) day to day..


Single or twin?? im leading towards single..

Im not planning to go racing on race track, I just want power there..

Looking at MPW performance at dandenog..

Whats your thoughts fells???

You didn't ring them up today did you? I was in there this morning and someone was on the phone inquiring about one. I don't know much about it but I know they do a lot of the kits, haven't heard anything bad. Pretty sure it's very illegal without getting it engineered, but so are a lot of things we do to our cars. Insurance is another big issue which ties in with the engineering.

Personally I'd choose supercharger over a turbo. More reliable IMO

Think about those two lines right there....

Cheaper and more reliable ways to get "more" (read: enough) power for a daily driver. Some bolt ons and a retune would be at the top of my list.

Really depends what way you go. There are a lot of turbo kits out there that are just flat out rubbish.

You can get reliable ones. C&A Auto Fashion in Blackburn do a really good kit, have heard good things about MPW as well as APS. But youre easily looking at the 10K+ mark for any sort of proper forced induction. If your goal is to get the shopping home quicker, well, its probably a waste of 10k.


Buying a second hand or a kit from somewhere like LS1TT for example youre going to need do lots of modification to get it to fit and they arent reliable.

I dont see why a really good quality kit cant be reliable. But, like supercharger kits, there is obviously more things that can possibly go wrong.
