hi guys
I just bought a beretta that was garaged for 7 years ans the body is mint!! In Quebec that is incredible.But the best part is it's Turboed!! it'a burgendy (?) GTZ with a T76 Turbonetic. The old owner was doing 13.26with it. anyways i'm picking it up the month. I have alittle bit of job to do on the car, but it's nothing compared to what I have to do to my 3500base.

Damn that is actually pretty close to me (the nearest town is 350miles away, so it's a relative term LOL)
Quebec has a lot of nice and strange cars hiding away. I saw so many when I was out there, there were tons of knowledgeable car people, cuz they used to all come to ask questions about my lifted diesel Blazer and make offers that required me to dig deep into my elementary school French classes to remember what it all meant :p:

He dosen't know the HP of the car but 300 or more i'm sure, because he did is time with street tires!!
All I know right now is the engine is fully balanced and forged with ARP rod bolt and head studs. he used to have a copper gasket on it but he blew it because of a lean condition. now its on a GM OEM gasket. he also said If I knew How to get the fueling tuned I could go higher then 15psi. Clearly if he knew about the quad forum, this car would have been a bigger monster then what it is.
Soon I will get some pictures when I'm done with it. In the mean time I have so parts for v6 guys for sale as well...

the gm oem is not bad. It is better then the Fel-Pro for boost. remeber the guy who got MRZ performance? he had to change fel-pro twice and now is on a OEM and it was holding well last time I heard.

It amazes me how people turbo a car and then don't know it would need tuning! Just get the OBDI gear and start tuning it... Just remember it might be hard on a ECU not setup to recognize boost so you may have to get a bit creative with a fuel pressure regulator or go MegaSquirt and tune it that way.
