All show and no go. It was up for auction on ebay about 2 weeks ago and the highest bid was $17,000.

just some pics showing that twin turbos do fit on front and how he ran piping, for all those that said it can't be done.
Of course i sure boost is "very" minimal since it is a original N/A car.
AT LEAST HE DID IT

It's all show, this car has been up for sale 4 or 5 times over the years. If the Crossfire could have been turbo charged it wouldn't still be trying to be done 10 years later with no luck.

Bjames - Turbo with 4 psi and working. Josh may have found the answer for more boost. It's just around the corner at this point.

Just don't say 'in two weeks', those words are the kiss of death.

It's a well done car, the body is all metal fabrication. probably the bumpers etc are glass and bondo. but thats normal

You would be able to retrofit some original headlights in the front quite easily. get a mod plate and your done.

I wouldn't expect hi-boost running on a stock motor. would need a full rebuilt to cope with the boost.

its pretty good value. i don't see what the probably is with people, i would buy it

That car was never driveable over idle. The shop that built never figured out a solution for tuning.

Looks a whole lot like an SRT6 .. which already knows what to do with boost.

That setup does not exist anymore. Currently that car runs a PTE-5857 at 14psi on low boost and 24psi on medium boost. Self tuned by the owner using the factory computer and a 3.5bar MAP... oh and is converted to E85 with a whole bunch more.

So with being a stock N/A 11:1 with turbos added. The calculated compression at 24 psi would be 28.959:1. Even running 85% alcohol how is it able to run and drive????

Did you miss the "looks like an SRT6" comment? An N/A in theory is safe up to 6 psi. At least that's what I've gathered over the last couple of years..
