WHY GO TURBO?

A forced induction setup is the only way to make serious torque and
horsepower reliably and at low rpms without a VERY large displacement
engine. Basically, if you were to double the atmospheric pressure your
engine sees (just under 15 psi of boost) It will theoretically produce
double the torque and horsepower; Unlike a crank driven supercharger
which draws power from the crank to run. A turbocharger uses heat
energy and spent exhaust gasses to run. It’s like free power! A
turbochargers boost is also dictated by load rather than rpm, as with a
supercharger, therefore maximum boost can be attained at a very low rpm.

HOW MUCH POWER CAN I EXPECT?

Depending on the actual turbo used, the system is capable of producing
1000+ horsepower. A 550+ horsepower 318 is easily attainable using
mostly stock engine parts and low boost.

DO I NEED TO RUN FUEL INJECTION?

Absolutely not. A prepped carburetor works as normal in a blow through
system. The availability of low cost wideband oxygen sensors have made
tuning much easier by eliminating much of the guess work. There are
many reputable companies that will build a blow through carb to your
specs or you can do it yourself.

DO I NEED TO RUN AN INTERCOOLER?

It really depends on what your goals are and how your engine is prepped.
Varying compression ratios and boost levels will dictate the need for an
intercooler. Generally, you will be able to run 8-10 psi non-intercooled
safely. Although we offer an air/water intercooled setup, you can run a
water/methanol injection system or E85 fuel to cool the intake charge at
higher boost levels.

WILL MY ENGINE BE RELIABLE?

Yes, in most cases more so than a performance N/A combo. This is due to
the fact that peak horsepower and torque are able to be reached at much
lower rpms. The mechanical loads on the engine from higher rpms are
actually more stressful than much higher horsepower at lower rpms.
