Turbochargers

Remember it is the torque that is going to kill the trans, well hp will to but not to the extent that torque can. If the wheels slip, then you can never get to peak torque. If you are staying under 300 hp you should be fine.

nevermind on the what info is needed for the custom forged rods and pistons. Found that info of JEpistons oder sheet.

prove me wrong then john!!

70,000 miles 75 shot, sc, sc +35 shot, 75shot, 100 shot isint enough proof?
my car has seen some type of forced induction 75% of its natural life
mike in denver ran 15 psi on his alero. what broke? the pistons
homegrown ran his car hard too, what gave? somthing in the engine
what more do ya need man?
show me the numorus numbers of people that have blown it then.

not only that but nitrous is much harder on your trans than turbo or sc.
I'm making .6 hp shy of 300 ft/lbs at the wheels on a 75 shot
seriously yes the trans does need help. but it will hold up to more than people give it credit for.
I'm honestly more worried about my stock engine parts than my trans [/b][/quote]
i wasnt bein a rooster (for once) when i made my previous statement. im just sayin..... get that turbo in and turn her up...... cause i hope everything does hold up.....

Do you have an oil cooler on the tranny? That's probably one of the best and easiest steps to making sure it lives a long life...

lol
I know.
I'm just saying I've allready put this trans through hell.
but on the down side a friend of mine with virturally no mods is haivng trans troubles. go figure....
I think you guys are more excited to get this on my car than me.
if it will hold 100 shot it will hold boost.
but I'll see what it does.
of course I'll have everything for the manual swap before going sick
just got my builder 3400 today.
75 bux and an intake for an S-10
not a bad deal. B)

Oil Cooler? Anyone want to elaborate for me...

They are refering to an auxiliar transmission fluid (oil) cooler. The car comes with a trans cooler in the tank on the cool side of the radiator, but these guys I want to say have installed an additional cooler in between the radiator and the trans.

So the fluid flow should be, I am not sure how these people have it set up. The correct install, following fluid flow, would be transmission trans fluid out, radiator, then aux. cooler, then back to the transmission.

UPDATE about turbo chargers!!!! i read on GAGT.com that a guy dynoed the hp performance turbo along with a DHP tuned computer chip, y pipe, borla exhaust, i think that's it, anyways, at 9 psi he got 264hp and 28 lbs/ft torque, pretty sweet imo

264HP and only 28lbs-ft of torque? Holy crap! What RPM was he turning to make that much HP then? 20,000?

:P if you knew what I'm getting the stuff for you would really hate me
I'm on a broke mans budget

found a few transmissions for under $200

Alright so 2 or 3 people ordered these i believe, has anyone recieved theirs yet? I want to know if this dam thing fits

[Naich]

its not ready yet.

What do you mean its not ready yet, i thought they had 3 or 4 kits left on their shelves, when will it be ready?

The only test car has been a grand am gt. You could order it now at your own risk as it hasnt been tested on an alero. John is going to be the alero test car. More than likely everything will fit. Then its a matter of getting dhp to tune the pcm for it.

ohh i know that no ones tested it out yet and john is working with them and DHP is putting off the chip til next year if that. I was just wondering if the author of this thread who ordered the kit installed it yet?

i had a question for the 3400 turbocharger. does it give you 220 hp or does it bring you from 170 to 220? cause if its only giving you 50 hp in a turbo charger thats kinda low..... but whos complaining
