It's significantly quicker
but I have yet to take it past 5K RPM's!! I am running a 5psi spring right now... it reaches max boost at 2300 RPM in any gear. 4th gear is ridiculous while passing people on the freeway. I need to twiddle with the fuel pressure and make sure everything runs right before going all out.
This is the second mod to my car... the first being the Comptech Headers. I'd say the difference is like 5-6x of the Comptechs. I will take it easy until I dyno it and figure out everything is working properly.
By the way... I JUST LOVE THE BLOWOFF VALVE!! I *pssffftt* past this convertible 'vette and you should have seen the baffled look on his face!!
The car has stock exhaust and is stock height.

I'll take some pictures of the front tomorrow... I need to put some thermal-wrap on the downpipe as its 1" from the lower radiator hose (not that it will do anything... just my paranoia).
I can't weld... so there's no point in me coming up and trying to make a turbo-kit for you![Smile](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
When I get bored of it... I'll sell it to you!
I am sure there's some tuning left to do before it hits any sort of big hp number... so we shall see.
I cut a total of 1" square during this whole job... just a little bit of plastic in the bumper where that fog-lamp gadget is... cuz the intake pipe was barely touching it.
I used the Comptech FMU... its fully adjustable and works pretty well (same as their S/C kit)
