I don't wanna see anyone else cry and whine about someone saying they have no experience with turbos until someone is posting videos of the awesome power of their turbo charged xj throwing some 30 foot roost. If you haven't done it, then you don't have that experience and you're beating a dead horse. I'm gonna go get the back hoe so we can get it buried, ya'll leave that poor animal alone while I'm gone, ya hear?

Im not here to claim I know everything about turbos vuz I dont but I do have some experience turboing a few buddies cars. While its not hard to actually throw a turbo setup on, most people dont realize everything else that needs to be done and the damage that can be done if its not done the right way. I completley agree a stroker setup would be better before doing a turbo cuz you can always add a turbo later and with the stroker setup it would be alot safer than on a stock motor. As said before if your gonna do it do it right, it may cost more up front but believe me it will save you money down the road. And dont listen to Grip everyone on here has some valid points grip just likes to think he knows everything about everyone elses rides and mods, if he dont like it his momma says its the devil so therefore its the devil lol.

You talk like anyone cares what you and your crappy, brash attitude thinks.
Maybe chill out and post with some tact and respect.
This is a family friendly forum, we don't 'flame' or 'bash' those with less knowledge. We try and help them learn.

i love to lend a helping hand, but it gets old answering the same question over & over & over & over & over... or correcting piles, heaping piles, of mis-information, then as soon as u "help", its ignored & more piles of sh.... eh, mis-information is added to it
...my bad, off topic
TURBO'D XJ... from http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1059015
& for those who dont kno... there isnt a turbo kit available for an XJ (unless someone's selling their "kit")... its completely custom, & VERY technically & mentally involved... especially one of the key components to a turbo system, the manifold
