he is one of the guys that went up to iowa to get the xtech kit put on. I talk with him all the time and he knows his shit. i trust him 100%, so if your looking for a turbo kit this would be the best kit to go with https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...lt/biggrin.gif
Agreed! Tearstone makes a great product. Hes a regular member on the Club3g and EclipseForums websites. In fact Im basing my kit off his (and in turn, off the Xtech kit).Quote:

thanks for that. I honestly see myself saving up tirelessly to purchase this kit, but I am NOT installing it myself. Now its time to figure out if any local shops (Meineke, Midas) has the knowledge to hook this all up..
Find a tuning shop for this...I'm sure there is one performance auto shop that can do it. I'd trust myself before I went to a Meineke or Midas....Quote:

FYI his turbo kits are the former AAI kits (now called Donald Eley Kits), hopefully coming to a Galant soon :twisted:
thats true, maybe i'd take it down to Boston where im sure they have tuner shops and spend a weekend down there while they install itQuote:

agreed with all above... I would buy that kit in a sec if it wouldn't be that expensive... but yeah, he's on Club3G and thats the former FIAS/AAI kit best to my knowledge... If I'm right, he also sells some refurbished SDS kits.
I got a feeling that in about a year, the number of turbo V6s will be close to the number of SCed V6s.
Refurbished SDS kits? :shock: ... https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...ault/laugh.gifQuote:

That kit looks nice, appears to be well designed, however that is the wrong turbo to be using for this application. That turbo requires a ton of exhaust gas to spool up and is excessively big for no reason. They should be using a hybrid T3/04E, possibly a 56 trim or even a 60-1 would spool faster then a full T4, and still be capable on the upward of 550-600whp.
oh damn $4600+ thats crazy i'm glad i dont have a v6 that kits looks great but the price is killing me
FYI, at least for the V6 kit, it is actually not a T4, and I can only say that it is a correctly sized turbo according to my sources (the kit has gone through many alterations already, and that list looks a bit old).Quote:
