hi-boost turbo kit

[01ylwmp3]

Has anyone had any experience with the hi-boost turbo kit? I saw on the website that it is supposed to add 100 whp and I wanted to know if this is true or not?

nope, no one here has tried it...

i haven't dynoed mine so i dunno, but you notice a pretty damn good gain over stock, there are alot of hiboosted protege's on this forum

 

[hellcat]

From what I've read on this forum, people have been really happy with their Hiboost kits.

Forgive me:

That being said, I have no idea what you're talking about.

Hiboost kits have been used by many on the forum. Do you have an auto or manual?

I noticed you're in Illinois. You should check out www.protegegarage.com there's all sorts of goodies there for our cars. Plus the guys who run it are fellow Illinoisans.

There are some MP3s running our kit, but all have the E6X upgrade due to the advanced timing in the stock MP3 ECU.

Take the hyphen out of what you're searching for: "hiboost"

Speaking of the HiBoost kit, does anyone know where to find it a little bit cheaper than $4,000.00? If Im going to get this kit in the future, Id like to get an idea as to where I MIGHT be able to find it.

 

[01ylwmp3]

Really the only place that I have seen it at is the actual hiboost website for $3800.00, but I could have sworn that I had seen it somewhere else for $3700.00, but I could just be crazy. Unless you find it used, which I would not buy it used personally, it will probably be around that price.

Alright, thanks a much man. I was hoping Id be lucky and catch a break. But I think Im starting to realize that if I want this kit, $4,000 is whats its gonna cost. I better enjoy that PSI every trip!! Thats for sure...

 

[01ylwmp3]

Anyone know about how much it would cost for install?

 

[changedman]

install it yourself. its not that bad. otherwise maybe 400-600$

 

[kasmankk]

dynoed mine...

got 256 whp at 15psi.

I've been searching, and can't find what turbo the Hiboost kit uses. Is it a T25, T3, GT28RS, what? It doesn't say at the site(that or I'm missing it and need to learn to read)

I'm just seeing which kit I want to try for. BEGI is now dead I hear and it's pretty much just Wagner Motorsports, MAM, or HiBoost. I'm thinking either HiBoost or MAM. HiBoost seems to be the best affordable, complete, and easy to install kit.

So I was reading about these actually and they are used a lot on WRX upgrades. I heard they have some turbo lag issues, but are pretty good for mid-range. So what do you think about it? Good, ok, or bad?
