Turbocharging my 3.8
 

Today the FedEx man brought me the Prodigy Turbo setup including the 12psi upgrade. I plan to install it all this weekend. I'll post up some more pics and let you all know how difficult it is and how the 350 rwhp and 400 ft-lb of torque feel:yup:Attachment 438714

Way cool! !!

I'm subscribing to this one. Please post a ton of pics

Will do! I'm planning on laying it all out tonight in the garage and studying it with a beer or two, so I'll take more pics tonight. Then I plan to make a list of other things I'll need such as an oil change (oil & filter) since I'll have to drop the old oil in order to install the turbo oil return line fitting into the oil pan. If anybody can think of anything else I'll need besides beer and jerky for this project pls let me know:beer::wink:

Welcome to the club. :clap: I see that you went for the 12 psi kit. :drool: I look forward to your build.

Yep, I knew I'd want the power of the full 12psi of boost, but didn't want to have to go back in a second time, so decided to do it all at once...hope I can get it done over one weekend otherwise I'll have to ride my bike to work:eek2:

High Flow Muffler
 

Oh yeah, almost forgot that I also went ahead and ordered in the high flow muffler cuz I don't want any back pressure on the turbo slowing the exhaust flow.

You will need someone to hand you wrenches and beers while you are working of course. :beer::beer:

Upgrading anything else? Or will the stock internals handle 12 psi?
