Okay, i got an 08 a/t tc and a buddy of mine works at a Honda Dealer in town. I was talking to him about mod'ing my car and he told me to just turbo it, but me not having much of a clue about turbos was doubtful. He said he could turbo my a/t tc, tune it, and dyno it for about 900 give or take with a turbonetics turbocharger. he said that somehow he gets a big portion off from turbonetics thats why the cost would be so cheap... How would you guys feel about this?

i put together a custom kit and i got very good deals on used parts. sometimes as much as 50% off and i am still into it for about $2,200

^^now that is cheep but believable

athlete3232

yeah, thats what i figured too. But he did turbo his car and 2 other peoples, so who knows. If i do it ill post pictures and stuff for the normal feedback. Doubtfully will though.

aen

yea, really really good deals and a custom kit the very cheapest will cost you like 3k

he probably grabs ebay stuff and sells it...

athlete3232

Possibly. Im jsut as curious as you guys are, i will talk to him tomorow but if i remember correctly he said that him and a few other guys have some kinda deal? with turbonetics where they had to put down like 10k, sponsorship or something. Who knows. Ill let you guys know tomorow.

aen

you never ever have to pay for a true sponsorship.

i dunno. be careful. 900 is wayy too cheap..

unless that's just a turbo + manifold and everything else you get yourself...then that sounds about right.

athlete3232

fyi what he told me^^ very doubtfull. lol

athlete3232

Yeah, i know. I just dont wanna get took cuz im not very good w/ turbos... but he said 900 for instal and everything... intercooler, piping, manifold, turbo, wastegate, oildump line, oil feed line, and air/fue ratio control.. that pretty much covers it all right?

aen

nah, theres alot more you need...and i'll let you know right now that a turbo, manifold wastegate BOV will set you way above 1k

athlete3232

I believe you 100%.. just figured id throw it out there for some feedback. I might be going down to his shop tomorow so ill see this dudes credibility. LOl, if i ever do take this little deal - ill post pictures and ____

TheMerovingian

Maybe it's a stolen kit. If it is, send pics and I might buy it for 900

SchaumburgScionJT3

^ lol yea if hes got a seoncd one ill get one too. good luck

Mr_Meaty

I say do it, as that's a great deal, and I wanna see what you get for $900!

but if you want my opinion, I think the subject line of this thread is a little to specific...can you gereralize it a little more?

athlete3232

sorry sorry. but yes, once i have 900 ready to spend on it... ill let u know if i decide too. but maybe it is stolen, but hey... aslong as it works right? 8-)

athlete3232

well... we were all doubters but it came in today! well most of it... the tubro, manifold, wastegate, and oil lines... pretty suprised that this deal went through!! Ican post pictures if you want, and i might even be selling the kit... so lettme know.
