I'm a huge fan of Precision Turbo and Engine, and don't see me running anything but a PTE turbo anytime soon.

If you want to troll, do it right and ask about oil choice. Turbo trolls are underrated.

isis is the best, but if you can find it for a good price you can use like 2-3 turbonators for lots of power with minimal effort.

What the actual fuck. There's no way that thing is better than electric turbos. Electric turbos actually have a power sorce. That thing is just a fan without a power sorce.

EDIT: the real deal

I actually run this exact same part on my KA24 Pro Am drift car. If you are on a budget definitely look into this route

thats why you need 2-3 the vortex generated causes substantial compression of the air molecules resulting in a denser charge and allowing for maximal power with minimal effortz

Or you could just do it right the first time and get 2-3 electric turbos. Do it right or do it twice. I'm sick of all these kids halfassing everything these days.

Don't listen to these guys. The best route is to get a leaf blower and zip tie it to your hood. Don't try to cheap out by buying generic leaf blowers. If you're really ballsy you could go twin leaf blower with nitrous injection.
