ill call ben up tomorrow.

i want to see if the how much the turbo is, so i can figure out how much i can afford.

 

ill call up ben tomorrow. i emailed them and thats what they said.

they cant just sell the turbo by itself given the circumstances.

they told me that could work on a deal for the entire kit but thats it.


but ill give ben a call

 

^ oh snap double post.


anyways i was just wondering about the gt2056 turbo you were going to use.

do you think that turbo is better then the one t1r supplys?
i know i will have to retune, and thats the only thing that is holding me back, but at least i know i can up the boost once i tune..when i get all the stuff i need.

what is the reasoning on the turbo you pick?

 

My reasoning behind the GT2056 is that it's a smaller turbocharger, but a better designed turbocharger. For a small engine like the Fit's the benefits of getting a larger turbo are very slim - you can make some good power, but there simply is not enough displacement to spool the turbo quick enough to get any real airflow into the engine. By switching to a smaller frame size turbo like the GT20, you should be able to get much better response out of the engine, as well as greatly decreased lag. Along with the decreased lag, a GT20 can flow more air than an older T25, so there's also more power.


Also, I get a beefy discount on the turbo since I work at Honeywell...

So yea, that's my whole hypothesis on the turbocharger switching.

 

then you should get the turbo and package it with the kit...

 

I would package it, but that'd add another $600 to the price of the kit... oh well. Maybe someone can take up my project and I can be the supporting inside man at Honeywell!

Bump!

 

im just waiting to hear if i get this new apartment or not.

thats what i wanna do is pick up your project. but yeah, still ticking away.

i dont want to buy this kit and then having the apartments call and say you can move in. then ill be broke as a joke haha

 

I gotcha - well if you truly want to pick up my project, you need to change your name to JamesRedCar haha

 

thats so boring though.

i guess that would be the same as SAN diego Milano Red Fit. exept in the abbreviated form


seriously though, ive been sitting here stressin about my apartment, and then the turbo and seats. then i got my cousins and friends with crotch rockets buggin me when im going to get another bike.


i just need to pick up a second job haha

 

Haha second jobs help, expecially when you're facing an automotive addiction.

 

This is just a bump - someone buy this kit! I'm heading back to IN soon and I don't wanna have a box o' turbo riding along with me!

 

Alright - dropped price $300 to $2500.


Come on people - it's brand new!

 

man i'd buy this in a second if i had my fit and $2500!

lol would probably be my first and last mod

 

Bumping this because I need it sooolllldd!!!

 

bump for a good seller...

Btw, did u figure out the diameter of the IC piping Alec?

Thanks,
James

 

if i didn't have to stress about moving i would pick this up.

if you change the turbo wont you have to tune the emanage?

 

LoL i bought mine too early. Good luck!

 

Correct- with a different turbocharger, you'll have different flow characteristics, so you'll need to change the maps accordingly. I would recommend this anyways with any kit, this way you can get a tune that suits your needs/conditions.

 

when r u moving?

 

I will be moving back to school two weeks from today, I would really like to have this kit sold before then.
