Default Re: Woot for SOHC Single Turbo

If enough people show interest, maybe we could get a sponser to take notice and build a custom kit. I know I would pay up to $1500 to $2000 for a single turbo kit.
I think I would be interested too, but probably not until a couple years in the future.

One question though: I love how the SOHC 6G72 seems to run forever, will a single turbo hurt that reliability to any significant degree? I don't really know enough to say if this is a stupid question or not, but I am curious.

Please note; this would be for those of us who wouldn't go boost-crazy, just enough to beef up power a good bit, nothing crazy. (I know that if you throw too much boost at (into) an engine, it will go pretty quickly.)
