Welcome to SS.com!

What size turbo are you throwing on? What kind of power are you looking to make?

It's a T4 ballbearing Turbonetics turbo, i'm looking at running only 6-8psi on the stock block. That should give me around 300-325whp and around 350 torque. That's the goal for now, with the turbo i'm running upgraded injectors, intercooler, BOV, custom turbo manifold, ect, ect, ect. Feel free to ask any more questions. Here are a few pics, (not pictured is some piping and the intercooler.)

That sucks. Now you have to go find yourself a dealer to make you a LSD headliner. :x :lol: :P

Do as much research into that as possible.

I'm not sure if this is the case for all Phantom Grip products, but at least for the ones that were marketed to the last few cars I've owned, they require you to remove the diff. pin in order to install the unit, and it makes the entire diff. weaker. It will turn it into an LSD, but there were stories of people breaking them in higher-than-stock-power applications.

That's the thing, ive never heard of anyone using this, no one on NewTiburon.com seems to have any idea about it.
