Hey how do you like that NOS system? I got some questions about it...how long have you been running it? What kind of increases did you see and how hard is it to change the shot? Thanks alot.

It's a shame that Turbo II's didn't come with better turbochargers, the stock hair dryer just doesn't cut it after awhile. I believe it can only take around 14/15 psi? My Galant VR-4 was running 19 pounds, but then I got the Frankenstein.

Infini,
My friends family has a galant vr-4 down the street at this used car lot. It doesn't seem like much to the normal eye but when you really look at it you know it's got power. Plus it's got that limited edition badge ont he dash. What are the specs on that. hp wise

Made in 1991 and 1992, the Galant VR4 has 195hp from it's 2.0l DOHC engine with Mitsubishi TD05 turbo.&nbsp Yes, it's quick, but it's far from being fast - over 3,500 lbs. of weight hurts!&nbsp Even with the AWD...

just switch out your s4 internals and intake for S5 and you have an S5 engine. no sweat. the main hp difference in the two comes from the lighter higher comp rotors and the VDI (Vtech for rotary) intake. get those and you are theoretically up to 160
