    I know 2 people that have tb45 turbo sets ups and they swear by them....

    As for me i dont really buy it....

    They arent the greatest motor to start with... they're big, theyre old, theyre underpowered amd they love to drink...

    I just couldnt justify turboing mine as id imagine it would cost morej adding a turbo to an already thirsty vehicle...

    As someone else said about it will just start costing you funds you didnt think you needed to spend... the current disi amd coil set up aint the best for turbos if trying to get 220rwkw out of it and i think many go ls coilpacks wuth them...

    Not to mention my mate also had to run an aftermarket ecu with his so add 2k for that plus wiring plus another 1500 for dyno on top of eberything else...

    I ended up ripping my tb45 out of my gu patrol amd i went something a little different... and it absolutely hammers
