Ive always wanted a v8 but i hear that a turbo will make me a nice amount of power. right now i have a stock 3.1 in my 92 rs. I think installing a turbo should be easier than swapping the entire engine. also with a freshly rebuilt engine what kind of #'s would a turbo bring me. Im only looking for about 300 which seems reasonable. Does anyone have a turbo'd 3.1 that would share some info and pictures. Thanks in advance.

 

Ask that again, late afternoon on August 20th.

255/334 @ the flywheel so far

 

How difficult was it to install the turbo and the intercooler ? Is there a kit made for v6 thirdgens ? How much money are we looking at for all of this.

 

PM me for details.... I build kits for us 3rdgenners

 

i sent a Pm but no answer

 

relax, he'll get to you when he can.

 

2 days to answer a PM ? Your still posting so i know you've had time. If you dont want to give me details then just say it. No need for the silent treatment

 

*rofl* Sorry, Google bar blocked my pop-ups, showing I had PM's Didn't see your reply in this post, either! Details! $3100 + s/h, complete kit, turbo, piping, fueling and all. Any other info you need?

 

thanks, when the time comes around, ill know where to go

 

Doward with the new choices of intakes which one should i buy (i plan on turbocharging my bird in the future)

trueleo or alans?

 

I'd take Alan's over Trueleo's intake.

 

i couldn't agree more

 

i like them both but trueleo is done and alan's isn't so i am getting the trueleo intake, and a ford 5.0 throttlebody to boot and some adapter wires to make it work. it may be a chevy at heart, but it's fed by ford!

 

Alan has one on his car now.....

 

Are the intakes available yet? Smog legal? Straight bolt on? Stock ECU happy?

 

yea the only one that he has made. is what i was saying doward is that he hasn't started to put them into production yet, he has only finished that one!

 

You'd have to contact Alan, as I don't know what the latest is on the intakes.....

Now to order my Ratech solid pinion spacer....

 

doward if you can tell me the material, the surface finish, and the measurements you need, i can have you one by next week. i got carbon(different grades) stainless(300 series and 400 series) and some others like K Monel, and inconel and Monel. if monel wasn't so heavy, i would have the driveshaft on the mustang made out of it, cause of it's durability, but a tube 1/4" thich the lenght of the driveshaft would weigh almost 60# if not more!

 

what kind of power are we lookin at in a 2.8 liter turbo'd camaro?

 

well if it was goin on a carbed 84 I would say 180hp.......seein as it suposedly only came with 105hp stock. lol..........I got a lot of horses in my car huh gonna kill my self with whole 110 to 120 I got now. so doward do you do carb turbo kits too?

 

No carb turbos... the bottom end can't handle it.

I laid down 222/291hp last time on the dyno, with a really bad tune..

 

I got an 88 camaro, so my 2.8 is MPFI. Im seriously considering in the near future, a bore stroke and boost. Is there a company that has like universal turbos? Or even kits, I mean I'd like some nice power here. Any suggestions with cam sizes, compression or heads? Truleo intake would be the best I would assume?

 

Doward sells turbo kits, soon he will be making plenums for stock/turbo engines. If you want to buy a intake buy his or alans not trueleo from what doward has told me. The melling mtc-5 is what cam doward has on his turbo'd engine, crane makes the powermax H260 which is for turbo 2.8,3.1,3.4.

 

doward is that 221rwhp and 291rwtq if so u just made me wanna buy that get even more. Also awile back u listed 11 items that came in your kit how much for each item? (injectors, braketry, intercooler, turbo, wastegate, bov, piping, reprogramed chip, gauge pod/boost vacuum gauge, oil feed/return)

 

I think I also had a list, with prices on all of it... Yes, 222/291 AT THE WHEELS.

SU129 in my hand... what's next? I don't know....

 

Now if we could just get you to get some traction so you can actually put that to use (and of course get it properly tuned) we will see what your setup can really do!!!

 

Is your kit available for 3.1 sd?
