Nice I'm in Rancho Penasquitos...carmel valley man that's a stones throw away. I wanna se a duratec turbo!!

 

[messedhobo]

Im on Coronado, right outside of San Diego. I am planning on purchasing the FS turbo as soon as I get the loan from my bank. Any feedback on it would be great, especially if you get it installed by FS.

Wait a second, don't you have to upgrade the rods on the engine before you even HIT 8psi safely?

 

[whynotthinkwhynot]

Apparently that's not a huge issue for some people. SoCalDuratec I know has modded his internals already if his signature is correct. My issue with anyone's turbo kit has to do with whether or not it's legal for street use. I would naturally assume that in CA it would be tougher to get certification for a turbo kit than anywhere else. I noticed on FS's website that their dynos were done on a car with the Cosworth race exhaust- so no catalytic converters at all. Ford really blew the aftermarket over on turbos by putting a cat in the manifold on all models. I didn't see a cat in the parts list on FS's site. If the car is a race car, then there's no issues.

I'm really concerned about the internals, personally..

 

[blkZX32005]

South East Daygo here. I may go for it.

 

[FocusFreak87]

Well supposeably when they tested the turbo, they did it with stock internals on 8psi non-intercooled and 11psi intercooled. So i think that if they post that, then it should be safe up to 11psi....

 

[Algorhythm]

Not necessarily. They could sell you something you need to upgrade for. There's no law against that.

 

[elliottcarlose]

Right but I would think if they sold something that would blow up your engine without telling you or having you sign a waiver word would get arround quick and ruin sales but I don't know
