))) bolt on greddy turbo kit (((

hey guys

been checking out a few options like turbo and superchargers , i know of the blitz setup and i know greddy has a bolt on turbo kit for the 2NZFE aswell , but the turbo kit is half the price of the supercharger kit , so , my question is , do you think the bolt on kit is worth it ? would it be ok for everyday use ??

either is fine for everyday use, provided you aren't running a ton of boost. As to cost, it seems at least to me that price is comparable when everything is said and done. Turbo companies seem to keep the prices attractive by not including the fuel management systems, so you'll have to figure that in as well.

Turbo on these seems to have a higher long term power potential though, as blitz seems to max out well below 200hp, at least for the time being. You'll be spending money on bigger turbos though and entering (mostly) uncharted waters with this though.

key word is SHOULD. You will lose life off the engine but is that what you want or do you want to boost a Yaris!! lol Just be smart and not a little ricer punk and you can run 150k+ on a boosted Yaris im sure.
