Upgrading My Turbo, Chasing Your Thoughts

[GTSBoy]

Oh....boy. Here's a worthwhile thought. NEVER borrow money to modify cars. It's bad enough borrowing money to buy them in the first place.

Yoda says, "Save, or do not. There is no borrow".

otherwise beg, borrow, steal....the end justifies the means

yep I was going to say the exact same thing.... no wonder the bank wouldnt give you the finance...

bank: 'so what are you spending this money on that you want us to loan you?'

you: 'power upgrades for my 12 year old car, i want it to go faster'

bank: 'oh kkkk?, thats sound like a good investment for us?'

Car load is bad enough, loan for a more bits? ugh, it is an expensive hobby for someone with the money let alone if you can't afford it.

I remember a mate years back, he had a good friend working in car audio ..So he decides to borrow 10k and deck his boot out with amps and subs the works cause he could get a good price and free install..

It was crazy, about 8k worth of goodies, 5 amps laid into custom boot panels, big subbox, more subs in the doors, speakers everywhere, neon lights the whole shebang......

Anyway before doing this we told him to fix the little bits of rust around his back window (old falcon) and make sure the boot didnt leak..

he didnt listen, his amps and sub box got wet ..it was mostly ruined and he had no money left to fix it just a huge debt and a rusty old falcon with half a cool stereo..

Ok as the title states im upgrading my turbo as my factory one is giving up, before i go and spend 6k id like your opinions

Now ill start with the cars current mods: Full 3" exhaust (gutted cat), Front Mount Intercooler, Walbro 255LPH fuel pump, K&N Pod, Yellow Jackets coil packs, Brand New Exedy Heavy duty clutch

Im Looking at the GTX3076R turbo kit from Kudos? it will be street driven and i want to get into doing a bit of track work, I know it will be a bit laggy for the street but i can live with that, i want to pick a turbo that i can use after i get the bottom end forged and want more power. At the moment until i get it forged and upgrade my clutch im chasing around 250rwkw

Along with the turbo i also plan on getting a top feed fuel rail kit with 650cc injectors and a Haltech platinum pro ecu

So what are your thoughts? have i missed anything?

yh dude thatnks for asking that i was wondering the same thing but my forum got shut but i havent found any forums comparing them directly.. You dont mind if i asked a question on your thread about what turbo would be better either the Hypergear G3 or the GTX3076r. apparently they're all good. BTW ID YOU DO MIND JUST DELETE MY POST!!.
