I was just wondering if Spool or BEGI was going to be doing any type of turbo upgrades, or work on our car. If so what can we expect? I will have about 2k I will be blowing on the car in late summer.
Spool/BEGI....

Spoolin has exprest the interest but I have not heard that BEGI or FM has yet.
Since you already have the turbo and manifold the next thing to do is free up the exhuast with a better down pipe and exhuast and open up the intake stage and replace that terrible air filter and such. Injen is already working on that. Also that intercooler has to go.

As I previously mentioned; I am quite pleased with my K&N install! Will I go with a CAI in the future? Maybe, maybe not. Don't have the disposable cash right now, anyway, as we are getting ready for vacation in the Southwest.

spoolin has stated that they will release an intake for the msp in may... at a price of about $100, with a group buy and the fact that the guy who runs spoolin is a member of the forum im sure that price would drop. just a thought for those that dont want to shell out for the injen

I wonder if it will also use the same route that Injen took. If it actually turns out to be $100.00, and there is noticeable gain; then my little K&N adventure might be short-lived. But; I guess there is a possibilty that they may use a K&N RU-3580 cone filter, or not.

umm but i thought spoolin is waitng on the new 2003.5 to come out first... as i read looooong ass time ago... so is the spoolin intake gonna be out soon? and is the hp gain gonna be as much as the injens... if its 1-2 less.. its worth for sure
just hope he speaks soon about when its gonna be out b4 the injen group buy starts...that way most ppl can decide whether they want spoolin or injen...

i think that spoolin -hintes towards a short-ram intake, which buy AEM's claims actually yeild higher hp gains than CAI's. (www.aempower.com) but i could be wrong and have wrong information as is coustomary for an msp owner

We've been thinking about it. Not intakes, but IC and piping upgrades. We've also got some turbos that might bolt up, as that teeny little T25 is never going to be a powerhouse.
But we need a test car. Anyone in Texas or Colorado want to help us out?

T25 refers to an family of turbos, not a specific one. The sizing of the one used on the MSP is intended for low boost, fast response. While it may be possible to get one up to 200 whp, maybe, you'll be past the efficient range of the turbo and having to deal with very hot outlet temperatures.

The order I'd go:
Intercooler/piping
Intake
Turbo
You'd be best off going to a larger turbo and selling the T25 as a unit. But this is why we're looking for a guinea pig. Instead of theorizing, we can strap one on the dyno and see exactly what works.

Depends on how well it flows. Maybe. It's pretty big, and that car just isn't running much boost. I would keep the stock boost and get rid of restrictions in the IC tract first.
You can't say with 100% authority what will work until you test. Of course, lots of people will jump forward and make proclamations based on nothing more than looking at pictures. But that's worth what you pay for it.
