here it is sitting in my POS daily driver, a 1993 saturn SC1 lol. the damn turbo is worth more than the car is!

So you took the leap huh

What's the turn-around time for the upgrade? Similar to upgrading a 9 turbo to a RED?

Robert said it was only a week turn around time. Usually in car people's terms you have to multiply by 3-4 though

When do I get to take a ride?

I think you made a wise decision with the HTA86 John

when I get it tuned then I can prolly meet you halfway which would be Knoxville or I might take it up to cookeville sometime to show it to My g/f's brother.

It's a fun car, I just have to be careful with it, it's kinda like a weapon lol

when the turbo spools it hits HARD, it's almost like your in a human sling shot or your an Apollo 13 astronaut lol

Hey man that sounds great!

I'd say she'll boogie when done for sure.

Give me a call sometime.

I love mine, 20psi by 4010rpms

PATRICK B. · Apr 30, 2009, 04:46 PM

Any updates on eta?

And Migs do you reach that psi on a standard 2.0L? How about full boost presssure and rpm?

There is no way he is reaching 20psi by 4000rpms on the hta86 on a 2.0L.. HAS to be a 2.3L..

I'm sorry I was under the assumption everyone read the first page first. I have a 10.1:1 comp 2.3l stroker. Not sure where it hit max psi at as my tuner has the logs but I will retune here soon and post the info.

got the HTA 86 in the mail today! It really didnt take that long to get this thing converted, they had fast turn around time IMO! I was eager to install the turbo as I am with every part I get!!!

pic off the car.

ya know what seems odd to me? the compressor housing on the HTA 3582 "looks" like it would be better for power since it has a nice smoother shaped inlet. the HTA 86 looks more rigid/less smooth in where it reduces. But hell, I fully trust Forced performance

Looks are just that. The compressor cover on the 3586 is a better design and actually helps with the spooling, which makes the difference in spool between the 3582 and the 3586 smaller than it would otherwise be...
