Price Costs for Turbo

ChopstickHero said:
slapping the MSP turbo kit onto an auto P5 will not be reliable. first, you won't be able to boost very much because the tranny can't take the added stress for a long period of time. and if your tranny can take the stress, it won't last very long. a built tranny is expensive. a stock MSP will be able to beat it no problem. you might as well look for a used MSP and trade your current car in. if you have an auto P5, you have no choice but to use your stock ECU b/c it's programmed for shifting, i don't think an MSP ecu will work. you will need some other type of engine management or piggyback to tune it. there are plenty of examples of boosted auto P5s on this forum. do some research.

please. A stock MSP is 150whp.. I'm guessing there's more than a few boosted auto P5s hitting that.

i'm talking about auto P5s with the MSP kit. i don't doubt the capability of a HiBoost kit on an auto P5. i've run with a P5 with a MSP kit. nothing to wow about. read before you post.

How much is it going to cost me?

Can Ken from protege garage do it? "silly question of course he can"

Can you tell me how much of a improvement in engine performance im going to see?

Thankyou

forgot to mention its a 03 p5

Massive, until your torque converter fails..
 
Matthew. . .I PM'd you. Give me a call, stop by this weekend and I'll help you out probably more than you think. Too many options to talk about on a forum, but there's been a lot of good advice. Let's talk (and take a drive). It will all be okay. Trust me. :-)
