Not much you can do. The IC is way too small. When they told me the BB turbo ran on 8psi I started to think of the possibilities.



When I asked the guy what I could do to it he said....Intake, exhaust, and maybe a turbo timer as long as i could put it back to factory condition. He said and i quote "you cannot add a boost controller"



The car is plenty fast for me. I dont think it would handle alot more power then it already has. The oversteer in thr front wheels was bad enough. It was a damn fun car to drive though!

I've since changed my mind on this, but thanks for the info. If I do get promoted, I'll just have a crazy TII and a nicer beater.

Oops, didn't see that! Slicks only, then.

Ha...yeah, that certainly shortens the list.



I have some other evil plans now, though.
