jasejase Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Just seems like a lot of work and money. You can put the money towards an upgrade and get a GT. With upgraded (over the 2.5i) brakes and other tidbits too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEE-OTTO Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 What's the avo turbo bring the power up to? 170 whp? @ the wheels 191-200hp depending on the car and tune. That is a safe tune btw 8-9lbs of boost you are in the low 200's with ease so not a terrible option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEE-OTTO Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 No but talked to a few people on here that have it done Istick3pedals ran both the UEL and stock on his 2.5i Turbo. He preferred the stock EL over the Rallisport UEL made a few more ponies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonic13 Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Don't care, im doing it. I will post my successes if any, here for other n/a owners to see if It really is worth it from personal experience. Car gets 175hp to the crank that's probably 125 to the wheels give or take. Avo states at just 4.5-5 psi i can get an lousy extra 100 to the wheels but this will be tuned no more then 8 psi so hopefully 300hp. 203? sounds like a jealous GT owner. if I happen to blow the motor, then a motor swap will commence. This is a hobby of mine, to take base model cars and get performance out of them. 2005 nissan altima 2.5 s base n/a model turbocharged to 290hp to the wheels. This is why I bother. It's fun. Now aside from all the negative n/a hating responses. Thank you GEE-OTTO for the professional direct response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonic13 Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 what I don't understand is how 8 psi will only get another 75 horses to the wheels. are you stating that avo is lying about the hp gains at just 4 psi? If so thanks that saves from doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious as to why you wouldn't buy a gt at that rate. It's not like they are double the cost. With that in mind, to each their own and good luck. Have fun sir.

GEE-OTTO Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 No AVO results are very impressive when they posted the dyno sheet i about fainted went from 118hp at the wheels to 201hp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so thanks that saves from doing it. That ratio sounds about right. 1psi for 10whp, give or take. LW's spec. B / YT / IG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking forward to watching (again) someone put more money and time into an economy sedan than it would have taken to peruse craigslist and pick up an off-the shelf model with ultimately higher performance. Don't worry about the "i" envy; all of us GT owners have it. We also struggle with chronic back pain from having to tote around our enormous johnsons. This is a hobby of mine... to subscribe to threads in which people throw money, logic, and sound advice to the wind to walk a path scattered with the credit card statements and scrapped parts of the literally hundreds of wannabe Hickstas that came before them. It's fun. Tits mcgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
