Re: How much boost can I put to it.
 
Im hopeing to get started on this project at the end of next month.im figureing on doing a set up under the truck single turbo behind the y pipe were the exahust is running beside the frame rail it should not be that hard to run all the plumbing i thought about custom header tt set up but thier is just way to much time and money involved in something that is still going to be slow but adleast it will be faster then the other frontiers. i will keep every thing posted.

I agree you did start the first insulting, which if you ask me is a bad move when your asking for help. as for the 13psi supercharged vs. turbo it is slightly differnt. a roots style supercharger is going to produce a bunch more hot air versus a turbocharger. if the ENGINE(not motor) is identical to a sc version then I'm willing to bet that if you ran a good intercooler you can run a few more psi. and another thing to consider is that you can blow up your engine with 5psi if you don't tune it right. you have alot of researching ahead of you..like what turbo to pick, what are you going to use for mangement, how are you going to fab it, if you mount it after the y-pipe how are you going to do the oil return without having it smoke like a freight train. personally I feel that your fronteir is you only vehicle and you want a turbo to fit into the crowd, i've been there I freekin modded a chevy corsica. wish I never did, but I did. If it were me I would look into a more econimical venue like finding a cheap honda or something of that sort and boost it. or get a supercharged frontier engine and management to put in your truck. nitrous. theres a million possibliities and I really think your working with a bad platform. but if you want to be childish and say stupid remarks to me then so be it.

GT350 no stupid remarks . from what i understand so far the only difference between my engine and the sc trucks is the injectors and the super charger.As for fabraction i have a friend who owns a auto service company and another friend of mine owns a muffler shop. im stuck with this truck for three more years i have to do something to make it different plus my daily driver is a colarado after haveing owned a z28, 3 mustangs (2) 5.0 and (1) 4.6 plus a dakota R/T im tiered of driving a truck that makes alot of noise but dosent go any were. I saw on tv a few weeks ago they tubro charged one of those new chevy srr or what ever their called and they did a turbo under it right before the exauhst way towards the back of the truck. where i want to put mine is actualy higher then the oil pan and only 3 feet away. yes i agree my truck is a very bad platform but the only choice for me is a turbo its the best perfomance part in my opinion and is only limited to whats on the other end of the charge pipe.
