Exclamation Turbo-kit from Stafford Fabrication?

http://www.staffordfabrication.com

they make one for popular platforms of the celica gt/gts and honda civic. Thou i noticed the was a lancer oz option, but there is no info on it. So is there one in the works for us? The celica gts dynoed at 240whp at just 8psi on SF turbo. Nice numbers IMO. Would be nice to have more turbo kits for our car, we have RRM, RPW, RIPP (SC) and now SF?! Check it out, maybe you can get some info at of em.

the car made 240WHP on the kit, but also made 166ft/lbs of torque stock and only 170ft/lb's of torque with the kit. So the torque only went up like 4.

and isnt the torque that get you from 0-60 and HP that keeps you there from what i remember reading?

170 is at the wheels. The 166 translates to about 130 at the wheels. so thats about a 40 ft lb gain.

It's $3300. IC'd and a T3 (little big for our car) runs 5-7 psi. I wouldn't bet on anything near those Celica's #s though.

I don't really think the T3 is to big for our cars... RRM uses a big T-28 which flows more cfm than the T3 and i've heard that the T3 can spool a little faster even.

Truly we need to just see some numbers from the dyno and specs of the system.

I'm pretty sure Andrew (HobieKopek) uses a T3 in his car... and when it runs, I'm pretty sure he likes it ;-)

lol - is his car still down and out? Im pretty sure its been non-working since i've joined these forums and thats like a year now, hehe.

I'd be interested to see how much this kit cost - and if u could get a non-IC one how much that would cost. and the numbers it puts down.

His car hasn't been down nearly that long, though it has been down on and off and its never been running ideally.

ok, first of all, with those gt-s turbo kits. celicas have no *****. their torque numbers are ****. seriously. a stock lancer would have more torque than one of those from inside the cabin. it's a totally different angine setup. thinking about those numbers they got with the celica, i'd think a very nice dynosheet could come from this kit. a celica motor is nothign like a lancer motor-just remember that!

The only way we will probably see an actual dyno sheet for our cars with that kit would be for one of the members to buy it and dyno it... it is very hard to trust the numbers that the companies come up with unless you have some outside source confirm it..
