renesis don't make no noise

My Renesis is ported, but the stock GReddy turbo can't even come close to feeding it.
If anyone has a 3071 or gt35r they want to get rid of, I am soooo there!
Hey GuitarJunkie, would you be game to help me fit a bitter turbo to my car?
I'm using an XEDE vs Interceptor. The XEDE takes full control of fuel & spark, has a built in boost controller, and the software rocks so it's pretty sweet.

Hmmm I wonder whos site that is? 
[jokie] But whomever he is, he seems kinda lazy. Definitely doesn't seem like the site of someone who will post mind blowing mouth watering porting goodness to a forum or anything. [/jokie]
P.S. Would you guys be willing to give Snoochie a call and at least find out who the car is doing? To bad he hasn't spent the last $100 or so to get the most out of this mod after paying close to $1000 so far.

11.5:1 Compression. Straight through 50mm (2.5 inch) dual exhaust. dual throttle bodies that I think are 66mm each. (I woill have to check on the throttle body size if people really want to know exactly)
it shakes the house if I start it in the garage.

in a nutshell, it'll be $550 to mod your turbo to the same specs as mine.
clipped turbine, 57-trim t4 compressor wheel, stock housing punched out, rebuilt and balanced. so it'll look identical to the standard greedy turbo on the outside, but it'll pack a lot more punch up top.
next step up from that is the mazsport turbo, unless you wanna go apeshit and weld a t3 flange on your greedy manifold and bash away at your firewall so we can fit a bigger turbine housing in there.
if you wanna go that route, a gt35r "hifi"ish kinda turbo might work. just like the 60-1's in the t04b compressor housings, i bet we could do the same thing with a 35r. if you're on a budget and don't want the gt stuff, i'm sure we can find a t3 housing that'll take a p-trim turbine, then we could do a t3/t4, 60-1 hifi with it. that thing would put out.
see how much the mazsport motor mounts are so we have some room to work with and we can go as crazy as you want with it.

no idea. i haven't talked to him for a while.
last time i saw the car in person was at the body shop sometime last year. he got rear-ended, and the body shop left his lights on or something, so i went down there and unflooded it. that's actually the last time i talked to him, i think.
