Re: Turbo 1994 SVX on youtube

I contacted the owner of the turbo SVX and hopes he will join here. I asked if he could have this turbo built for you guys if there were some people interested. Here is his reply-->

"Hi, glad u liked it what was the site that pointed to my vid?
The SVX was done my brother and I in our garage. And as far as cost i've put about $1500 in (parts) and recently the auto trans is slipping so perfect timing for a 5 speed swap from a legacy donor i found complete from a junkyard cost another $200 for the manual trans, peddles driveshaft, cross member, rear diff and rear axles. The big money is going to go into a decent clutch.

As far as working on other SVX for a turbo build i dont see any problem with that, have to do a bit of shopping but as long as it comes ready with all parts needed to get the job done...."

I let him know that I'm a huge fan of 'what works'. I do not care if it is ghetto or not, I'm about end result. If the car runs well, it is what it is. Hopes he shares his experience on how it runs and maybe some power numbers in the future.

I am still thinking about the $1500 in parts area. Boat loads of money I do not have but I could come up with $1500 in no time and have this kit installed. I'm happy N/A and wouldn't know if it would work with the cams Chike had installed anyways.
