Aproximately how fast would a stage 1 be? stg 1 = Hanging w/ m3's Or is that not enough? How much hp u think u have to have like 341rwhp to hang or beat m3's?

I'd like to know too. Hey Dave, I think I'm going to run the Petter Farrel Turbo system.

341 is huge, M3's only have 330 @ the crank. It is heavier than an IS. Most people say oh my car has 400 horse power. I say bull shit, 400 rwhp is so hugh that most CV axel's will shatter. Most of the time they have not dyno'd the car. You put 300 to the ground you will take a vette.
Happy boosting
Derek

mmmmm depends on the vette, as well as your is. z06 vette runs 12.5 1/4mi ( probably anywhere from there to 13 with driver error)

Z06 gives me a good run for my money.

Shiet Derek, that's blazin. Steve lets talk about turbo's becausei'm ready to buy asap.

I just spoke with a local shop that actually installed the Peter Ferrel Turbo system.

They said it did 335 RWHP but was setup to use 93 ocatane so they had to re-dyno. Other things they said is that it needed some gaskets and the piping wasn't an exact fit.

Total cost $8,300
