Here I am guys....

Player, alot of us have been where you are and are still in search of the holy grail for power out of our 2.5

There is another thread active right now on this board reffering to how much power can we eak out of a 2.5

I've done the air intake, then the supercharger, now have the twin turbos.

I will post my dyno for you. It shows the oem run for a 2.5 plus a supercharger then the turbos.

The sc and the turbo runs all have exhaust, headers, intakes and custom ecu programs.

Coming form someone that has been there...I love my turbos. but if I had all the money I spent on the sc and the turbos I would do a 3.4 swap. And modify the begezes out of that 3.4

The power is about the same and the engine is not as stressed. Stressed is an assumption I have a NO problems with my forced induction engine.

Speaking of this power of a 3.4 has anyone dynoed a 3.4 in a Boxster?? Lets see a dynochart.

If you want forced induction it is cheaper than a swap as you say. Last time I priced a swap it will run 15k, whereas a tt should run 7kish and a sc new 6-7k or used 2k plus install.

PK has been looking for a way to intercool his sc search for those threads and join in.

I used Turbowerx hes a good guy. Ask questions and he will answer them for you.

I have not seen a 350hp 2.5....yet.

Look at what some of us are trying to do...join our conversations and between all of us we can break that barrier.

Hell I want a 500 hp 2.5.
