Turbo Gs 430
To all GS 430 owners
Superchargers move Over its TURBO Time!!!!
I know swiftracing doesn't make superchargers anymore and are only doing twin turbo setups. I have a 2002 GS 430 that I am putting a single turbo by a custom fabrication race shop in Tampa, FL, for around $8000 and puts out about the same horsepower as the Twin Turbo expected horsepower gains are 450RWHP on only 7 PSI. The project should be done by November 2004. Any Questions just reply.

hey wait a minute here , i thought is was already established that a single turbo setup could and would not work on the 1uz block due to space limitations because each cyl banks are located on each side of the block which is why the only turbo setup that would work is twin
someone please clarify this

Yeah, you can see his car @

Say's he is running an XS/Garrett GT3540 water-cooled Turbo
Looks like XS Engineering was able to pull this off.

I don't think RY will mind John.
He's got enough new stuff coming that this look will soon be "OLD" .
BTW John, he's still trying to make the meet next week, so I'll be taking a ton of pics.
