AS YOU MIGHT KNOW, I'M STRANDED IN IRAQ WITH MY MONEY ROLLING INTO MY BANK. I'VE BEEN BUYING EVERYTHING I'VE BEEN WANTING FOR MY 7,680 MI 02 CELICA THATS IN THE GARAGE BACK IN GERMANY.
NOW THE BIG QUESTION COMES INTO PLAY, A TURBO? WHO MAKES TURBOS FOR THE GT AND IS THERE A FUTURE TURBO THATS GOING TO TOP WHATS AVAILABLE NOW? deal

Dude...there are NO kits for a GT yet. The only thing you can do is go custom.

There are two that I know of that are supposedly coming out soon(by soon I mean within a month or two)however. 1. David Drapers Kit...and 2. Stafford Fabrications. Both will be around $3,500 for the kit. So I'd wait...as in...wait for people to try it and get reviews...or...have someone make a custom turbo and piping for you.

I would trust David Drapers turbo. Meaning I wouldn't wait for reviews. He has worked long and hard on this project and he has a good reputuation. This is just what I would do, you can do what you want though. thumbsup

Don't want to hijack your thread eurocelika. But does anyone know if there's any turbo kit for a GTS??


Life is like a dream...Hopefully when you wake up it isn't like mine.

It's kool dude, has anyone bought or tried the DD turbo yet? Also, what about Turbonetics, they have one?

Another question, I have a TRD Kazuma exhaust, am I going to have a problem installing the turbo since my downpipe is altered with the exhaust?
