Is this YOU?
Guess they didnt wanna show the car anymore.....
Blue Boost
Chevy 1988 beretta
Engine: Rebuilt mpfi over 3.0 liters Transmission: 3 speed
Car Owner: Rik
"1988 Chevrolet Beretta. Stock it was n/a 2.8 with a weak auto 3 speed trans. Now it has a custom one off turbo build and built trans. Could use some cosmetic work, but the mechanics is where it shines. Looking forward in making this something to have for a long time. No regrets."
Was just looking around the site I got my turbo from and found this.
CX Racing also built cars for the Fast and Furious Movies.

Who ever it is they are dumb... 3.1's are so restrictive and nut less with a turbo... if he was doing that much he should have upgraded to the boost friendly 3x00 motor.
Either way I have not seen this car on this site before, or anywhere. How old is the picture?

3.1 turbo will still rip on most NA 3x00 motors, but they need a lot more boost to make the same power we can.
I know times are tight... But stock intake tubing under boost?

Is a temp. I had to order more pipe. By Friday I will have the rest of the intake pipes.
If you was talking about mine that is.

Yeah I was talking about you.
Do you have a thread started about your car? I had no idea you had it built already.

Boosted vs NA yes, but as many state, its pointless to turbo a 3.1 mpfi let alone a 2.8, unless your doing a TGP restoration. They just dont flow worth of crap.
