what do you guys think about the twin turbos going on ebay, worth it or just some crap ones?

eBay Motors: JDM START TWIN TURBO KIT MUSTANG V6 GT 5.0L 3.8L 94-04 (item 250400241135 end time Apr-09-09 01:22:39 PDT)

also what would i need to do to the body to keep it from falling apart if i put this on?

If you can.

1.) weld
2.) have 30-50 hours of free time
3.) don't mind cursing at yourself several times over and over


Then you could make it work, expect to add another 1,500-2500$ on top of that pirce however. You'll need fuel injectors, pump, tune, etc.

no. Generally speaking, if the kit can fit 3 or 4 different types of mustangs.. it's junk.

no name turbos
and no name intercoolers
with Blow off valves as strong as vacuum check valves

sounds like $1000 for piping, a 3week lasting turbo, garbage spiking wastegates and pure crap...a bit over priced

[gooberhead320]

there is no cheap way to get a turbo, twin turbo or even a supercharger. look through the forums a bit and you will see that

[ESG-642T]

Sure there is its luck.

I bought a brand new polished vortech head unit for 900$.
custom bracket 100$
belt - 50$
misc - 25$
nuts and bolts - 10$
total of: 1,085$

[HMUSN]

^ that's not enough to get it up and running properly though.

tune, fuel, ect.. more $

[03_StangGuy]

Total crap, good turbo dont have a bolt-in waste gate. Theres now manifolds and theres not pipe to join the two turbo. Its been said a million times but you get wut u pay for. Look for a used setup

I've had all that junk forever

but add -> 300$ tune, 200$ fuel, your good to go.

[HMUSN]

you can get a fuel pump, injectors AND a tune + chip/tuner devise for only 5 bills huh? lol

[ESG-642T]

Yes, IF you can find a used xcal for 150$ that's unlocked.

assuming that he doesnt have all these parts lying around and cant steal an xcal for $150, it would probly cost over a grand for tuner, tune and fuel upgrades

[gooberhead320]

don't give the guy hope that its going to only cost 1500 for a supercharger, or turbo.

[ESG-642T]

You have had a ton of luck .. thats all .. you can get injectors and fuel pump for 200 easly and ive seen some xcals for 200ish and a local tuner does some tunes for 150/250 so its not that bad of a price.


But on the other hand, got TMA for a turbo or build your own kit. or try out Vortech or Paxton superchargers. Good luck, cheap isent the best way to go. Ive got a used TMA kit for sale if your intersted shoot me a pm or email me plove71387@gmail.com

Mind telling me what shop it is you speak of? I'm assuming they will tune with SCT since you have an x2 correct?
