I have to agree with Roger on this one. Go big or go home. With that setup the S366 is a solid bread winner. Don't cheap out and go EBay when you are this far. If money is an issue, then continue to save and you will thank us later. JMO!

Save for that turbo. You will get tired of the boost for the twins. Most people over boost them with like 14-17psi, and we all know what happens for any length of time. Boom booooommmm...

Mark, this car is a 1.5J these twins wont last more than a month in the 14-17 psi range the motor will overspin the stock 1J twins and you will snap a shaft or grenade the ceramic wheels and ingest it through the intake and it will wind up on the piston case CLOSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It better to do it right the first time. If you dont have the money for it just save it. I built my Turbo IS and sorta rushed into things and not research and alot of things bit me in the a$$ later down the line. Now im building my SC and i know what to do and how to do it. Learning from my mistakes from my other build haha. If money is tight for you i would rock the stock twins at low boost and save for a nice good turbo set up. Good luck.
