The peer pressure to mod is real) I want to hit the 10HP per pound range so 280 WHP is my goal. This is a daily driver and reliability and longevity or a major concern for me. Car will be 99% street driven. Maybe occasional autocross. I am not interested in SC. Turbo is the way to go for me. I have a good friend who is a Toyota master tech and he will be available for assist with install. Looking for full kit with tune for around $7k but is its more, so be it. I want it to be as bullet proof as possible. Suggestions and input wanted. Go.
Among the Turbo kits I considered before deciding on JRSC, I was most impressed with the AVO kit since that is the only kit with turbo below the engine to avoid additional exhaust piping and heat.
