Good turbo kit for a 00 GT.

I have been looking around a lot but have not had a lot of luck finding a good kit. Any suggestions on this? Looking to run on stock internals. Because I cant find any new internals for the GT. Do they make them?
THanks

Re: Good turbo kit for a 00 GT.

There is no turbo kit for the V6 right now. The one maker went under, so the only two options you have are to build your own turbo kit or to get in contact with RippMods and get their SDS supercharger kit. It puts down respectable power, alot more than stock.

FYI, with dougs dyno power, you would be lucky to get half the items. And X-Tech has gone out of business.

What do you mean by get lucky to get half the items? Do they rip people off?

Re: Good turbo kit for a 00 GT.

Idk, but i couldn't really on a turbo thats custom. Heard 2 many bad things on turboed Gt's. Som eppl made it, and its good, others didn't.
If i were you i would consider the SDS. Power gain i think is better than turbo, and there is no lag.
Its easier to install, and takes less space.
Ripp mods makes very good SDS's for gt's.
So far, only gs/rs have good turbo's.

Ask Rulez, he got a turboed GT

Re: Good turbo kit for a 00 GT.

Here is a kit. No idea if it is worth a damn but it looks like they have made or been trying to make an supercharger for the 3g GT's.

*EDIT* sorry, I was wrong... its a turbo and only for the RS/GS. WTF?!?! Where are the 3G parts?!?!? I'm dying to get a supercharger or possibly a turbo but it looks like $3K+ labor and I can't even find a shop nearby that could even install one >

Re: Good turbo kit for a 00 GT.

is that turbo kit for the gs/rs worth it? i mean, i was thinkin of gettin a gt, and then getting a SDS supercharger, but thats much more $ than a gs with that turbo kit!
