question on muscle car turbocharging
 
Ok, so here's the deal. My friend has a 70 GTO with a 455HO and he wants to turbo it, but budgets are tight. I want to see what the HMT community thinks of a cheap but effective way to turbo this bitch. It also has ~10.5:1 compression to start off with. What would be the best/cheapest way to turbo and tune this?

Don't get involved in being an internediate for your friend in forums. especially while such project, I think, will require enough internet research and forum talk to justify having his own computer and a HMT account.

i would say big holset, a holley boost carb, thick headgasket, and 8 psi of boost. should be one hell of a ride.

personally i would find a intake manny for fuel injection and run mega squirt.

well basically we are both poor ass college students and he loves carbs too much he wont touch EFI with a 10-foot pole. I might have to do that, but how do you tune carb?Do you just use FMU's or do the boost carbs take care of that?
