Re: turbo
Im not sure what size turbo you should really use. A lot would depend on how much boost you want to run. Why intercool and rear mount it. One of the big advantages of rear mounting is your not sucking up hot air from the engine compartment. If your keeping everything stock, I wouldnt run more than 5 to 7 psi, so a smaller turbo would suffice.... Better yet just by the STS turbo kit designed for the silvy

Re: turbo

Re: turbo
Just because it looks cool doesn't mean it is worth the money spent. An intercooler just means more parts to break down. Like Bigbadram said, if it is rear mounted the Turbo does not need to be intercooled.

Re: turbo
and for the money saved on the intercooler you can purchase a moderate nitrous kit
