Exclamation New of today - Need help guys (Turbo kit Q) =>

I recently bought a 2000 Oldsmobile Alero GX Sports coupe with a 5-Speed manual transmission,
And it has a 2.4L Twin Cam engine, I was wondering if this would be a good purchase >

Quickly check out link > http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/99-00...item518e2ad0cf

Heres some thats included with the kit:
-Turbo Exhaust Manifold:T3 Turbocharger flange

-Hybrid Turbo Charger:.57 compressor wheel trim,50A/R compressor housing, .63 A/R turbine housing, 1/8 NPT oil inlet, T3/T4 hybrid Capable of producing over 450 horsepower

-Front Mount Intercooler:
-Universal Intercooler Piping Kit
-Boost Controller
-Slim Cooling Fan
-Electronic Turbo Timer
-10 Meters Heat Wrap
-Stainless Downpipe
-High Flow Intake Filter
-High Flow Breather Cap



T3T4 .57 trim Turbo and Intercooler kit for $599 on Ebay. (I think the brand is "Garret") ??
Motors all Stock, looking to buy Performance Muffler, and run a turbo anywhere from 6-8Psi.

Could you get back to me, on if its a good buy.. and if 6-8psi would be safe
Thanks guys.

If your engine has low K's and a good head gasket it might be ok , keep the boost down low - 6 psi. If its a used kit insepect compressor very close. Make sure every thing is very clean.
