Does anyone have a Fast Intentions Stage 3 turbo kit installed on a stock engine?
 
Does anyone have a Fast Intentions Stage 3 turbo kit installed on a stock engine? I'm going to be ordering a Fast Intentions Turbo kit and installing it on a stock block(for now). Does anyone have any input on the Stage3 kit installed on a stock block in reference to how laggy it would be compared to a FI Stage 2.5 turbo kit? I'm asking because I don't want to have to buy larger turbos once I decide to build my engine so I'm seeing if I can actually have fun with the Stage 3's on pump gas for now. Anyone have any experience with the Stage 3 kit that can chime in on this and can answer any of these questions?

The old Stage 2.5's are the new Stage 2 now days. You can do it but to be able to use those turbos with a built motor other things will need to be upgraded. See if they Fast Intentions will sell you Stage Seb turbos. Those have been used on a stock block before but the engine didn't last long before a rod exited stage right. Just keep the boost turned way down and it will live a while. Now is the time to decide where you want to be in the future as far as power goes. It get's expensive quick once you get past 700whp.

Tell us your plans and how much money you want to spend. I am good at spending money. LOL

Haha. So for now, the car is going to get an FI turbo kit installed on stock engine keeping the boost reasonable for a stock engine with all the other supporting mods(fuel system, id1300's, pressure reg, fuel pump, etc.)

I already have a spare engine that I will be building while I have some fun with the stock engine. Plans for the built engine are the usual, Darton, CSS, pistons, rods, supertech, JWT C2 cams, boundry pump, etc.

You need diff upgrade, suspension upgrades, Wheels and tires. If you want to push it past 800whp you will need CAC upgrade, Intake Upgrade, Turbo piping upgrade, etc. Like I said, it gets expensive quick.

That's IF you can drive it at 700whp. Most people can't.

Upgrade the diff. My VLSD **** the bed under power and caused thousands in damage. Make it #1 priority.

Yeah, I know all that, this isn't my first rodeo with a big HP car but I wanna have some sort of fun with it for now as a stock engine car while I hoard parts to build the engine, etc.

stock blocks are consistently tuned to 700whp by Soho etc. It will be fine on stock block.

What you don't know is how hard it is the keep the engine together. There are no off the shelf parts that can get you past a safe 800whp. Custom work is not cheap. Save yourself and get a GTR. Several of us feel that way but we stuck it out like fools.

Welp you ain’t lying there. He need to save his money and buy a Supra or any new bmw. 30k will net a 1000whp and get you into 8’s
