i was wondering if anyone had trouble turning their 420a n/t engine into a gs-t?
i know people have posted saying they are going to put a turbo in their gs's but i havn't saw anything about if any one had trouble doing it.
any help would be appreciated
thanks in advance
 
Done it twice with no problems. Actually, 4 times if you count upgrades after initial conversion. Lots of information on the forum on the subject, check into that first.

What specific problems are you worried about?
 
thanks guys.
i wasn't worried about anything in particular, just wondering if anyone had any significant problems.
but yeah i'll check the 420a section.
thanks,
brock
 
just be careful not to boost past safe levels for your engine internals... about 8psi on stock engine
 
yeah thats what everyone that lives down here that has eclipse' and talon's keep telling me is that it is not recommended to go over 8psi, but some people put it as 9 for some reason.
