JDL Auto Desgin Turbo kits?
 
Looking to move over into the world of forced induction has anyone used the JDL Turbo Kits?

Everything I have heard about them is positive. I have not heard a single bad thing about any of their products to be honest.

Twin spool like two smaller turbos turning into one giving you a much better response. That said they cost a lot more usually

@Alltezza you will a treasure of information at this location for Borg-Warner. Then follow you finger to google other turbo articles/info by other manufacturers and tuners.

Good luck!

Thanks for the info lol I was just too lazy to google it, lol I did search it up a while back and i ran into a forum post over here and it said something about like twin scrolls aren't that good for this car or something. But I'll look into it and decide.

Also since there's little spool time that means there's none of that "SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS WHOOOOSH" Sound anymore?

Edit: It was this thread right here where I found that apparently twin scroll is a waste of money on this car and I was trying to find out why.

Thanks. Read through the post. My take away from the arguments was that your design goals drive the solution set.

I'm still way too new at the FI game to have an opinion that would add to the conversation or further you along in your investigation.

GLuck!

I don't think there are carb legal turbo kits since you have to replace the header/cat unlike a supercharger.
