So I was thinking about dropping some turbos in my car when i ever i got the money. But i have a few questions:
1. has anyone done it in our cars?
2. what kind of numbers do they put down?
3. better than a comptech s/c?
4. price?

a couple cls have it, one that i remember was putting down 464whp and 430some wtq on 12psi with race gas.

it puts down more power then a supercharger depending on how much boost u run.

its got to be custom made, or u could buy the ebay one but thats not gonna last long. and when it goes it will do major damage.

 

About how much does the whole system weigh? Are they heaveier than superchargers? I would love for my tl to put down those kind of numbers thats crazy!!!

 

u have to ask the turbo and sc guys how much they set up weights.

 

if you have a non type-s go with sts turbo. you can look it up online, it costs about $2,500 as for the comptech s/c go's for about $4 OR 5K I think. If your looking to see how much power your going to get or not going to find many TL's out there with a turbo. I know there's a couple of CL's that have turdo's....

now as for the what system is heaveier....that would be the supercharger and they only make it for the TL TYPE S.....or you can get the one that would fit a 98-02 accord. as for the turbo it would be a rear mount turbo so you wouldn't have to use at that other bs right...I hope this info will help you out mane.

 

Unless you have a lot of cash, some knowledge about the subject area, and a tranny that's newer, supercharging/turbo'ing your TL may not be the best mod to look into for you. You could really do up your TL nicely for the amount you'd spend to get that kinda setup in.

 

dropping a car "the right way" is still cheaper than turbo/sc.

for shits and giggles, i added up the price that i spent on mods for my car, and sadly i could have gotten a sc/turbo for the amount of money. but the car wouldnt look good going fast

 

^^I did that with my mr2 a few months ago and I wish I didn't because it totaled up to be almost how much I paid for my 02 TL-s and it's not even done...
