I'm sure AVO will offer different turbos for higher power.
I hope the entry level stays conservative.

I'd rather have a car that does 0-60 in 5 secs a lot of times than one that does 0-60 in 3 secs once.

Exactly.

This is sounding like a picture perfect stage 1!

I say leave this kit as is.

Their car already has an exhaust on it though. Doesn't it?

Looks like it from the video. At least a cat back.

No question, reliability is important for a stage 1 kit. We really don't know what that hp/tq# is yet for this car over a prolonged time. Things seem to be holding up well with higher numbers in the short run, but that's not much of a gauge of a motor that has been boosted for 5+ years.

Even if the fuel system, motor/tranny can take 250whp all day long, over and over, you are still going to wear down parts like the clutch faster than normal.

It looks like AVO is going to make a great kit for the car. I was just saying, I'd take more hp. Hell, I'd take 300whp if it was reliable without swapping pistons/rods... but who knows?

Nice, finally some numbers and vids. Looks like a good entry level kit with stealth look.

Bravo

Wow that torque "curve" is ridiculous. This kit is more tempting by the minute.

normanb21 · 10-06-2012, 11:30 AM

Can someone post the graph on here? Also I do t want to go through all these pages to find the list of mods on this car, anybody know what mods they used to get these numbers?

Seriously dude, the answer to your question and the dyno chart/video and info are in the post right before yours...

Tansey86 · 10-06-2012, 12:19 PM

I completely agree that a reliable, consistant, efficient entry level kit is what most will seek, but what if you could get a kit that does 0-60 in 5 seconds reliably then upgrade later and have a car that does 0-60 in 4. Because im not sure about you, but most people get used to how fast a car is and want more. IMO scalability and growth in a kit is just as important as the initial setup.

Just go on Facebook, search avoturbo, click their page and it should be one of their latest postings
