Re: twin turbo
lol how little money are you talkin bout? if his talon has 350 then he's spent alot, and no matter what cars you have you can't win a money war. but to wake up the tpi, i would recommend lt4 hot cam, 1.6 roller rockers, ram jet intake manifold, tpi ram air intake (worth more than most would think), 52mm throttle body, electric water pump, long tube headers, and true duals, pcm tuning, shift kit, ratchet shifter, alluminum driveshaft, 3.73 gears, some sticky tires, adjustible torque arm, adjustible lower control arms. still don't know if you'll win or not, but those are some basic mods you can really wake up the tpi with... on top of all that you can throw on a supercharger w/ relativley low boost... but i would do those mods first. i wouldn't recommend twin turbo unless you're really good at fabbing up shit, i'm not aware of any bolt-on kits

Re: twin turbo
those mods w/out the supercharger should get you more power output than he has, but 350hp in a light weight car is pretty hard to beat

Re: twin turbo
i take that back, you could spray the engine for cheap... but be safe about nitrous... no more than a 150 shot on a stock block

Re: twin turbo
tpi ram air intake (100)
long tube headers and true duals (300 or so) shift kit (100 or so) 3.73 gears (300-400 guessing) pcm tuning (bout 75) you trade those for a few things depending on how much work u want to do... like a cam swap and roller rockers etc.

Re: twin turbo
Realize that even with those mods youll be hard pressed to beat a 350 hp talon especially if its awd. How many miles are on your car?

Re: twin turbo
Upgrading to one of these would gaurantee a win over almost everything on the street.

Re: twin turbo
Also something else to consider. To get to 350 hp at the wheels either takes a passion for this kind of stuff or a lot of money. Most of the time both.
