Anyone familiar with Turbonetics? Are they good or are they cheap?

Don't waste your money on a kit, its cheaper piecing it together yourself.

Yeah, I personally would just go to an engine shop. And, there's one here in town that I know of that has done work for a few people I know. I actually have been to that engine shop as well.

If I am at 150 horses and 152 ft pounds of torque, then I already got a pretty decent start. Someone did pose a question in the engine section about the possibility of having a twin turbo on there?

if you mean a small turbo feeding a larger turbo its doable, but you want a heavily modified engine if you plan on doing that. But eithe way you would be looking at moving things around in the engine bay/removing things

Thus, spending a ridiculous amount of money.

But that's the whole point of car modifications...a blackhole of money and blood.

true, (at least for me!). but not for a daily driver... anyways, turbonetics will be just spending a ridiculous amount of $ for the same thing chinesse ppl do all day for a cheaper price. the only difference is the logo!!!! (experience talking- i bought some silicon joints and some had no label and where the"cheap ones" and then i had to buy 2 more and the only ones i found where sparco. when they sent them, well, it was the same thing as the "cheap ones" but with stickers!!!!! that really made me mad!
