"NEW" turbo kit

As I am talking right now, the car is sitting in a shop here in Ontario getting a custom turbo kit put on to it. The car is going to make decent power, more then the hahn turbo kit that is for sure. The turbo is a GT28. So it is a bit bigger then the hahn kit. Also they arent using crappy worm clamps. They are using T-clamps. So I am HOPING it turns out ALOT better then the hahn kit. Also they arent using a log manifold, They are using a tube style manifold. I will have more updates for everyone in the up coming week. This kit should hit the market by the mid to the end of Feb.

So this is a heads up for the Canadian people. This set up is for the 2.4L motor.

Also the company making the kit will ship it to the US. This just makes life better for CDN people, no more BIG shipping charges and DUTIES. the TAX killer.

GT2876R TURBO WD 52.7 CTRIM 48 TTRIM 76 A/R 0.64 T25 INT WG 280-480HP

But the one that is going to be used is the GT2871R.

I just wanted it a bit bigger to hold more HP later on this year.

that is unknown, It is going to be around the same price as the hahn kit, but it is going to give you more HP then the hahn kit. Also you wont have to worry about big shipping charges from the US, and Duties.

I will be getting more info this weekend for everyone.

I would be interested in how your kit works...I have read the Sol Forum and a few problems are showing up on the Sol's that have had a Turbo kit installed..as yours is a new kit they may have found the key...pls post how the kit looks and performs....Seal9

got a price range on this kit. 5K US. But everyone needs to remember. This is going to be a much better kit from the parts used to the turbo being used. This isn't a $500 turbo. You will be getting a $1500 turbo. everything in stainless steal and aluminum pipes. New high flow cat. Tial wastegate tial BOV. And a Garret GT2871R turbo. Also a tube manifold. If anyone else has anything to ask. T clamps. If you wish to see the parts your self just pm me, and I will hand over the list.
