Any one in here know of or have an Svt Contour with Turbo? I have seen S/C ones and nitrous ones.. but I haven't seen a Turbo one. If someone has done this let me know. I was curious as to numbers and such and what size turbo was used.

Try a search. Street Flight makes a turbo kit for the duratech. There are a few contours with it installed. You should be able to find all the answers to your questions.

$5000 sounds like alot... and those numbers were on a "Modded" 2.5L and not a 3.0L? Any numbers on a 3.0? Anyone using anything larger than a T28? Like a T3/T4?

when i talked to kaiser if i remember correctly the 292 fwhp was at 10 psi with only 91 octane. thats IIRC. those of us that live in a normal state that sells 93 octane you could get a lil more juice out of her. and keith from street flight says "the kit comes with a flip chip so you could even possibly run 100 octane". which he feels could be at 300 fwhp.  ohhh dady like

actually those numbers on the 2.5 werent modded at all. kaiser (chris) returned his car to stock other than the cat back, in order to do the project. now to me thats impressive. if u ask me i think 5g is plenty worth it. the only thing ive heard for the t3/t4 is that its going to be fitted on warmaonger and beyondloaded se's 3.0L.

On a stock Svt-C yeah those numbers do sound impressive. So per se I did a T3/T4 or larger. I would be the first to do so?

well per se yes. but would you want to? thats something to call keith about at street flight and hell probably talk you out of it like he did me. i was looking into that as well. the t28 is the ideal turbo for our car right now. it hits full spool at 2700 rpm. if u ask me thats bretter damn fast. on a stock setup they dont recommend running anymore then 10 psi. however with the right mods and a lil better octane more can be achieved. now not to say the t3/t4 is bad , its just not the right application at this point. keith at street flight did inform me that a guy in i believe texas is fabricating a larger turbo that will still spool up the same as the t28 but will be able to hold more boost. keih says that it probably wont be ready till next year. he also says that it will be a direct bolt on replacement meaning that u dont have to alter the kit at all. this "guy may even use the t28 as a core charge and just sell his turbo to you in exchange for yours. but thats another story for another time.
