Some FANTASTIC turbo sites to check out

www.turbomustangs.com has been around for some time and in my opinion, is the site on the web when it comes to JY/DIY type of kits. Ive learned a lot of things by hanging around there even though its primarily mustang based.

Recently, the site owner added a forum for GM vehicles and just this week, he also started a new site called www.turbogms.com

The turbogms forums are the ones @ turbomustangs.com. There is already a pretty good base of people there but I know a lot of you guys could add to whats there so go over and register and represent!

turbomustangs.com is the sole reason my mustang now sports two T3 turbos and a homebuilt turbo kit and my firebird is soon to have a nice fat single hi fi 60-1 turbo on it soon.

That's a great site, but... everything seems to be for 4th gen (LT1/LS1) f-bodies, I don't see any companies listed in their website for thirdgen cars.

Just curious to see of anyone sells a turbo kit for the TPI motor - that would be pretty cool. Anyone hear of such a kit?

All I had to do was look and found something fairly relevant...

If anyone knows more about this, though, let me know!
