Twin Turbo kit for our SC430
Just wondering, has anyone put in any thoughts or curiosities about installing twin or single turbo charger in our SCs? I saw some TT kits on Ebay sell for a lot less like around $1,100. Any comments or thoughts are much appreciated, thanks....
by the way, here is the link of the above's picture:

The ad states 600hp. There has to be upgrades to achieve a 300hp increase. I also wonder if the transmission and rear end would handle that much power...

Their website shows a selection of engine upgrade parts. Should optimize internal airflow first with a port and polish and replace rods and bolts. See rod comparison on Lextreme - OEM rods are said to be weak. How much can be gained with a rebore and larger pistons? Lighter rotating parts? General weight reduction from battery, seats, drive shaft? The transmission is certainly not built for 600 HP - I haven't researched transmission upgrades but surely some are necessary. There is a lot to do before adding a TT kit... I would make a road map of projects, parts, steps, costs, time and end goal. Every year I move a bit further down the path though I'm not in any hurry really - just enjoying the trip.
