How much does your turbo consume versus how much when you had it stock (estimation)?

Installing 600HP Direct Bolt-in Rear Axles fits most turbo or do I need to get the 1000HP?

Thanks again for the patience!!

I do it for full tank and drive until empty. Miles/gallons. 10% more consumption. OEM Rear Axles. You are welcome for my patience.

This is by far teh worst advice in this thread. Please do not watch that video and do not buy Crawford built motor/turbo kit. They just put a piece about that car in a big US magazine article and it yet again failed to work properly at a race track.

Do you think I was really serious about this? I meant go do more research on the subject and then come back and ask on the right post to keep one thread with the same topic so this way the next searcher will find fewer but more helpful smart guy.

Hey, if you do not want to help =p you don't have to. For any patient person who don't mind posting answers to my question thank you. Thanks again King Tut!

You're using OEM axles, how much is the OEM axle rated? Would it be beneficial to go to 600HP driveshaft shop axles? I don't have issues with money =p

Research is fine, but I wouldn't get that from Crawford who think the solution to this car is to put a little baby Subaru turbo on it and tune it poorly till it blows multiple times and then recommend everyone get a built motor.

If money isn't an issue...why under build a car. Buy the 600 axles. There will be no downside.

Your going to lose anywhere from 10-30% mpg based soley on how much you keep your foot in the gas. If your conservative, you will less. If you drive balls to the wall, you will lose more.

Don't have issues with money? I will PM you my PayPal account then, I could use some more. If money is no issue then just call up LJ @FullBlown and he will get you setup with the full Supra/Ford drivetrain, built motor, and turbo kit that will put you in the 9s. Why mess with DSS axles when you can have a solid rear axle?

He likes Canadians and maple syrup from my understanding. @Dipstik-sportech

Stevew8 · 06-12-2014, 04:07 PM

I'm with you on that.. Because once he searches Crawford then he will see the related videos as I advised and find out what is good and what is not but definitely didn't mean it like that buddy :p

What application, budget, and goals do you have for your car? Everything is a balance but figuring out a goal is the most important part.

Turbo if you have a large budget; supercharger if you don't have that large of a budget.
@King Tut is a very good source for turbo setups and reliability. We can help you out with either.

This is so confusing. I am researching and searching from my end, but when you joke around you don't really answer my questions....
