Posted by 99GSBBStarTurbo, Feb-12-01 02:12 PM
Whats up everybody?!
I'm new to this board so PLEASE don't ignore my message...
I just bought a Stage 2 BB Kit from Wyatt, and its suppose to be sent to me by Wed or Thur and Wyatt said hes going to install it myself this Sat if I get it by FRI:-) I've been reading all your posts and I can't believe how much you guys know! I have learned so much just by reading your posts and when I get my Ball Bearing Turbo installed, I will be looking toward you guys for help if you don't mind:D

Oh ya just one more thing... all those who are boosting, is it worth the $3000 plus that I have spent... I Really hope it is, cause I'm kinda scared cause all that money I spent at once:-)... and "BoostinRS" could you send me some pics of your ride, cause mines white also and I think you have a Star Kit as well. My E-mail address is thetachi66@hotmail.com

1689, I can't stress enough...

yeah boost is a wonderful thing..
You'll think its worth it when you start SPANKING Honduhs Left and Right LOL

But you have to spend more money if you want the Maximun power out of your turbo! Pistons,Rods,Injectors,New Tires, Guages, Exhuast, etc :P HAVE FUN!


BTW- i need a good exhaust system if anyone can hook it up ^_^

Well thats not all I got...
I all ready have 18" rims, Eibach Springs, Tokico Struts, and some other small things on my GS Sport and
To add on to the Star Stage II Ball Bearing:-) I got...

Autometer Modified Air/Fuel Gauge
Autometer Ultra Light Boost Gauge
Autometer Dual Full Pillar Pod
NGK Plugs and an
HKS Type 1 Turbo Timer

and hopefully in a couple of months, a Boost controller... I'm still not sure which one. I was thinking the Greddy Profec B but thats a lot of $$$ any sugestions????

Whats up Wyatt?? Can't wait for you to install my Kit Saturday!!! Did you get a hold of Steve Yet???

WOOOOOW You got the ballbearing turbo! That's a way mighty turbo...super spoolin' speed!

As for whether it's worth it or not, definitely! First off you'd notice you'd get improved gas mileage! But then again, you're forced to use 94 octane gas too...heh

I'm still "breakin' in my turbo..." Kinda scared to go full throttle until I fix my fuel system! :(
