Squires Turbo Systems - FAQ about Turbo, Turbocharger, Wastegate, Horsepower, Torque, Turbo Kit, Garrett, TiAL, BOV, Turbo Lag, Boost, Intercooler

but i have yet seen any large amount of boost so yea ill add another boost gauge before the supercharger when i get the cash
honestly, Itake everything squires says with a grain of salt.
oh, youre doing this, lol. I shoulda known. bring it to the v.

t4 anything is very laggy when remote mounted on anything not v8. Turbo probably has a p-trim turbine with a .96 housing or an .81 its gonna be a high rpm turbo for sure, you wont see any benefit just street driving. unless you happen to be doing 70+ on the highway.

to give you an idea, the z06 twin kit uses t3 based turbos, and thats with 3.5l of displacement per turbo. its gonna be laggy no matter what. The only way to combat that is ceramic coating and heat wrapping everything.

p.s. ditch the steel intercooler piping, all thats going to do is increase IAT's which means more heatsoak and less power. aluminum is the way to go
