    Thats pretty sweet hows it work. Do you get noticably more power. What do you get for top out speeds? I have a 4 banger I am building up and I am not looking forward to the driving on the road to get to the trails. How much did it cost total?

    Total cost about 800 bucks, but i got the turbo from a junkyard, and did all the fabrication myself. It runs great and has awesome power. Noticable on and off road. Thanks.

    Well i used a t3 turbo, blow off valve, custom charge pipes from a muffler shop, made the manifold myself, intercooler, propane mixer, and converter plus tank, boost guage, and a/f ratio guage. thats all i can think about right now.
