Tib custom turbos
I post something a long time ago about the accent turbo ,and you guys said you can get custom turbo. What if i get a custom turbo for the tib you think the car will get as much as 400 hp or more. If it does how much is the starting cost of the custom turbos.

Sure you can do custom turbos, how much money do you have? wink.gif
Realistically, the turbo isn't the problem. I can get you a turbo that is CAPABLE of making 500 wheel horsepower for under a thousand dollars.
The problem is, you have a turbo... now how do you "plug it in"? The parts involved there are considerably MORE than a thousand dollars and are rarely something you can do just by yourself.
How much does it cost? Around $3000 for the engine work, about $3500 for all the turbo equipment, about $2000 for the new computer and all the fuel stuff, around $2000 for all the needed suspension work and probably another $1500 for the transmission work.
It will be 400-500 wheel horsepower, it will probably run 11's in it's sleep on slicks. But it's probably more money than you were expecting wink.gif AND it will still look stock inside and out...
