    Quit editing your post, asshole, lolol. Nothing wrong at all with going with what you have. Don't think I'm knocking you at all for your choice. It's all good. See what I'm working with? Lolol. Later, QD.

    I know your looking for performance stuff, but you should really stop worrying about doing anything until you have done some research.

    There is a ton of information out there, you just have to find out what works.

    Well, its strange though...everywhere i keep on reading that my block can only handle 4psi un-tuned and still be reliable... They also say, that i can run up to 7psi on my stock block and still have it reliable...with a GOOD tune...

    So, im not 100% sure if it'd be worth it or not...4 - 7psi would get me about how much extra power...??

    i think it would be worth it.but not if your buying a 3000.00 turbo kit.you can peice one together for a lot less just because its not all the same brand does not make it junk.
    i know you have a pontiac and im talkin about a honda but my old ef with a zc swap and 7psi put down right at 200whp with a very mild tune,stock the motor at the flywheel was i think 125hp to the ground maybe 95-100hp so look at the gains..with tuning i might have had 550.00 in the kit oh and i ran a very small t25 turbo thats what i would reccomend for you if you do it, if not that then a little t3. good luck being different people always get shot down for being different
    yes i am....

    Well, that WOULD be nice to do, except, i dont know what ALL the pieces are that i need to get...I do have a list of stuff that i can get my hands on from j-body.org, but, it doesnt include ALL the parts that i'll need. I would still need a bit of assistance with gatherin everything...(And, i think i wanna run non-intercooled because, theres no GOOD spot on my car to mount the cooler up on)

    Who ****ing cares what you think? Who are you to tell the guy he should get something else? You aren't ****, that's who. It's people like him that people like me give props to for working with what you've got or not being a ****ing sheep. Later, QD.

    If you want to suggest something, why not try being helpful and offer something for his car..the Pontiac. Telling him he should get another car is not helping anything. Later, QD.
