...we filmed a 'Home' video for you guys,introducing Carole,leading into the install of the TPC Racing turbo set-up,tonight.......
Never stopped laughing the whole time!
Wait until you see the video we made,we need to mash and edit it together!
Carole is such a 'Gamer'.....gotta love that girl!
Hang tight and in the next few days it will hopefully be 'UP' and running for you guys to view..... as long as we get moderators approval,LOL!

I have to confess THAT I have NEVER owned a turbo charged car before...always been a supercharger kinda guy.
4 of my last 5 cars have been supercharged....so I am eager/excited to try this set-up!

Go for a ride....or better yet test drive a car WITH Forced induction....you soon will learn to justify these frivolous purchases


Payment has been made,stock headers are shipped for modification......looking forward to getting the kit here.I swear half the fun of projects like this is in the anticipation of doing it !

if you compare the cost per additional HP and ft.-lb, I'm pretty sure you'd find that the turbo upgrade gives you a lot more power per dollar than any other bolt-on mod. forced induction is an amazing thing

The real comparison that should be made is the dollar/hp of doing bolt ons vs. the hp gained from our system...

Oh I agree completely... I just mean justifying it at home! It would seem that some women subscribe to the theory that a stock car is fast enough, can you believe that nonsense?

Well Ken,
The money was sent via wire transfer and JUST cleared......
So I believe TPC Racing will be shipping late next week BUT with Border customs and the fact that TPC is a long ways away....we should see it in a couple of weeks!
