Well I've actually been seriously considering putting a turbo on but wouldn't I need to do a bunch of internals work like get stronger pistons, rods, crank, and all that bologna? Because if I remember right, 5psi is the normal for boost and 5 times the normal amount of mix which means 5x stress seems like it would make it fall apart. And also, I've only found one turbo exhaust manifold which was like $500 from brazil. So I'm not sure how you got $300 for the setup but $500 for manifold + $200 or $300 for the turbo = $700 or $800.
And would that be all I need? The exhaust manifold and turbo?
And why would I need a methanol injection? What does it do?
Lastly... a turbo would eliminate the ability to have a dual exhaust right? Because I heard a straight six with headers and it sounds AMAZING. But I saw a video with Tom's (Telowe2000 I think) el camino and, no offense, but it sounded... undesirable.
Just my thoughts. Thanks guys
