Turbochargers

The 220 is whp. So it wouldnt be 220-170 it would be 220-140. The 3400 is about 140 whp stock. That is about an 80 hp gain at only 5#s of boost. The test car has it turned up around 9#'s of boost and is at about 268 whp and 284 torque. At about 12#s he should be over 300 whp and torque. This would be about 160 whp over stock and over 140 torque over stock.

220hp add on r u joking. We aren't running twin-turbo supras here.

Um wow.. first of all, twin turbos don't make your car faster. The first turbo is a smaller turbo used to spool up faster and reduce turbo lag. If you want to make a supra faster you actually GET RID of the twin turbos and put one big ass one.

You are just making yourself look like a fool man.

LOL. You could have two big turbos, like one for each bank of a V-8 like my coworker's husband has on his Corvette. That just makes fitting them under the hood easier though. But on a Supra, yeah, that first turbo just makes it feel fast off the line. That's the way my dad's Volvo is.

First off, putting a turbo on an alero that boosted 220whp would be almost impossible, because after everything part you replaced, it would not be an alero anymore, more of a custom car. Like is the srt-4 a neon? And if you really don't know srt-4s don't answer.


And B-spot, like you've stated, yes most "HIGH-PERFORMANCE" Tuners will swap out the twin turbos and upgrade to 1. But the point i was trying to make is that the average turbo upgrade will not bring you 220whp unless your running a supercar like the supra, which most twin turbo kits will boost to for them. Although this is not saying that 1 turbo is neccessarily better then 2. Its more of an opinion. What you want, faster spool, more power, better powerband. The more popular choice is the single for the supra, but you get my point. I'm not the fool here, don't be so ignorant when reading my posts and assuming I'm so dumb.

.

Probably, nothing useful has been said here for 5 pages h34r:

Also, 220HP at the wheels at 5psi? I call a big bullpoop on that... but hey if it's proven to be true than it's damned impressive.

if your talking about HPs turbo kit, yeah they did dyno it at 220hp @ 5psi. I guess the grand am that put this kit on, is going to be running 10psi pretty soon. Try the GAGT for more info.

Also, 220HP at the wheels at 5psi? I call a big bullpoop on that... but hey if it's proven to be true than it's damned impressive.

Well it may have been 6psi. If John is willing to put this on his car there must be a reason.

Im sure well get a good idea of true whp once John has it installed. I expect his car will put down better numbers than the test ga. Guess we will know soon enough.

I guess I can cut it back to 6 psi to check
the exhaust on his car was not stock but I dont think anyone would put on a trubo and leave the exhaust stock.


StealthAlero, only a couple inches shorter? well is 6 or so is a couple then yea.
you can tell by looking that there is a difference in length.

220 extra from a turbo is cake
we make 140 stock
220 extra is then 360
I'll be closer to 400 at the wheels when done.
I've seen our stock engine take 13-15 lbs properly tunned.
imagine what a built engine would do with a trans that will hold it as well.

I remember a time not so long ago when you barely knew anything about this car either. and as for the flaming you in a thread... maybe you should take your own advise after starting the whole flame session in this thread.
I"ll leave this up for a little while then edit and delete as needed.

And for you sweetalero99, do i really know alot about cars? Well maybe not as much as you about vinyl cut outs and clearing corners or all the other things you think makes you more of an expert then me, but yes i do know a few things.

Unlike your sorry attitude, that has no other life then to just stay on here 24/7 and post negative comments to anyone who comes around.

But that doesn't give you the right to make fun of everyones rides, all you have to say is "it aint my style" and thats it. Your vinyl and rims aren't my style, but i don't bash on you unless you bash me first

ok first........... i invite u go go back and try to find one since post where i said something about ur car......... actually ill save u the time cuase ive never critizised ur car.

as for my sorry attitude of sitting on her 24/7....... actually i have a full time job and on top of that...... well i went and had sex with my girlfriend tonight..... and im just now responding to ur pm at 3am est.... so i cant be on 24/7.... just seems like that cause all my posts make points.

next.... i dont rip on everyones rides...... i give plenty of compliments.... but no1 remebers those posts.... just the negative ones. and who are u to tell me how to respond to peoples posts. dont be a hipocrit after u basically made fun of that alero kid for askin his question in this thread.

and finally u say u dont understand why u are treated they way u are........ and ill tell u this.... it all started back in they day when u joined this site..... u tried to act like u were gonna save the alero community and u were gonna get this body kit made and that turbo kit and so on and so forth. rubbed alotta people the wrong way..... that and along with the fact that u obvsiouly really dont know much about cars.... well some people jsut dont like that attitude.... just as some people dont like mine.

u can say whatever u want about me...... i dont care...... but atleast i dont act like an ignorant fool like u do 99% of the time.

[-Alero-]

ok wow i guess i apologize for being interested in the car i drive. i just want to be unique. and this is the first car ive ever owned in my life, and i wanna make it stand out. im sorry if i ask dumb questions here and there. its just cause i dont know. and alll that stuff on my signature, is stuff i want, not stuff i can afford, its not like im gonna buy everything all in one day. at my rate i can only assume i'd get half the things done to my car that i want in over a year.....i never cared about price cause, im willing to divote alot of time to this car, because i care for it. and sorry if i had plans and ideas for my car.... pshh

Dispite prior warnings a certan somone couldn't keep things civil.
thread has been edited for content. if it gets off topic agian I will lock it.

Just asking again, has anyone who ordered their kit installed it yet? It seems like the author of this thread, bought his and never came back on. Hum....

^cant wait!!

Hey trickedalero, im from indy too, let me see it when u get done and where u have work done, im lookin at turbo in the near future as well. Thanks and good luck!

New to the site but the turbo topic intrigues me. I havent done any performance enhancement yet but I plan on it in the future, I'd like to know how it works out for you guys.

EDIT: Probably shouldn't have posted all that info yet. I'll repost it if everything is a go for sure.

Please keep us updated on that, thats some good news!sure will be nice if there is a kit that has the reprogram with it, hopefully if that works out then perhaps something can be looked into for the ecotec....which is what Im researching right now...

Well i'm awaiting to talk with HPP to see if it is a go, but you'll want to talk to springs..... because he'll be the guy caring all this stuff soon i hope.
