the Is-F will be my turbo upgrade in a year from now...boooyaaa.

props to anyone that does go through with this, i am curious to see what the numbers are like since they did some pretty good stuff with the IS-F.

these same people boosted the Artisan IS-F.

i would like to know this 250 info as well lmao, iv'e tried asking everyone i know, all my friends boosted is300's n their shops etc..only piece i have come across is the squire turbo systems that install like a catback exhaust..like the is-f artisan twin turbo, 600hp or something..i spoke to the squire turbo sales and they put me in contact with their service rep. and he said even with the high compression n ecu crack this kit shouldn't be a problem and that the engine should run fine with 3-5+lbs. of boost ..just would have to buy a universal kit for like 2g's and find the right shop..i keep telling myself its gonna be a failure so i dont go further. only lead i only got and that was last week.

I'm sure 3-5 lbs would work fine (and there's no ECU "crack" for US cars, nor would you need one for so little boost).

Mind you, it'll cost more than just getting a 350 instead of a 250, and you'd gain 3 times the power that way instead of the turbo kit, but I'm sure it could be made to "work"
