What HP boosts on dyno have 2.4 engines received?
 
What HP boosts on dyno have 2.4 engines received after S/C or turbo mod?

I don't have budget for forced induction right now, but for the first time in my life, I have a car that has made me thinking on the subject.

There is one guy here, Ion_C2. He has a 2.4 automatic he is between 400-450 horsepower. Runs 11-12's in a 1/4 mile.

He's the only turbo 2.4 around here I believe.

They still keep loosening. It's really annoying. I used fancy lock washers and such but it's extremely sensitive to loosening up. Next time I take the turbo off I'm using Rocksett thread sealant (high temp Loctite of sorts used on gun barrels and such).

I've hardly done anything at all with my car this year, it sucks. Still many things to tweak and fix up before it can safely/reliably be run hard. Just been driving it around like a regular car, but with a decent bit of boost here and there.

When my friend had his 240 with the sr20det swap, he used 2 pair of vice grips. It stopped loosening up and blowing gaskets. He even tack weld the bolts and they still came off.

Turboing your alero. Ain't that hard but make sure you did your research I put out 320 at 11 psi with a good tune. And it ain't gonna be a back yard job. Make sure u change that fuel pump. Witch your gonna drop that tank. I did mine on stock block with no problem. But I do suggest building the block for the safety of your wallet. Have fun with your build.
Just to put it out there I just sold mine for 9k your investment might b worth it.
