No. Use the search button next time. This topic has been murdered already.

Thanks for the advice guys. I'm going to twincharge it by running two of them in parallel. Thats right, I'm going to install another factory air box, and a Y pipe, and have two Turbonators.

Two inlets means twice the air, which means twice the power, as long as I put in a high flow fuel filter to get more gas. Which means I should be putting out 290 at the crank. Awesome

Also forgot to add, that I will also put in another turbonator when i can save up and afford it after the "Y" so that I can draw in even more air to the intake. But I'll put reverse pitch blades on teh turbine, so that it remixes the air to get even better Distribution of combustion.

well atleast something is getting blown in your car.
jk

the tornado isnt the same thing as the turbonator though

its probably even worse for your engine than fitting a fan after your filter.

ebay garbage, this one wont do a damn thing

I agree, but when we were noobs the search button was used.

I think it needs an upgrade or something cause even if you search the easiest thing you get either nothing or 1000 threads that have nothing to do with what you need.

and maybe a NooB Tutorial that you must take to become a member.

Yeah lol I will admit it, I actually thought about buying this or the turbo whistler thingy that you attacht on the end of your exhaust to make your car sound like it's turboed. But because of this thread, I won't...HOwever I still want to see how that turboed sound would sound like in conjunction with the supercharger sound hehe (bc i don't want to spend $4000 on the twincharged setups)

Do not! I repeat. Do NOT attempt the Super-Duper-Turbo-Nos'er mod unless you are a trained professional as the Nos can poison you if the shot is too high! Also make sure the carbon straw does not have any leaks and you should be fine.

It's so damn close I figured the Super-Duper-Turbo-NOS'er-Booster! still applied . I hope the original poster doesn't think I put that up to ridicule him, not my intention at all I just can't help it cause that image is still funny to this day .
