Default who has a turbo saturn?

Just wondering if they were on here. Saw it at the parking lot at USF. Don't see too many hooked up saturns and wanted to know the specs. Let me know if its you.

What color was it? I believe this one was black. It was a 2 door, I believe like an early to mid 90s one. Nice size front mount.

Good ole XtremeSaturn....Patrick. He's a TR OldSkool'er! Nice set-up....not superfast, but gotta hand it to him for clean and determination. I haven't heard for him lately either...

Tis me. It hasn't been super fast but I'm finding some of the reasons why. Call me a newbie when it comes to car repair but when I started this whole deal out I had no tools and no clue on things.

I recently discovered that I was missing 5 bolts (guess no locktite on the install) off the downpipe. I knew I had an exhaust leak but thought it was just the shitty weld job the muffler place did. I was loosing some power and now things seems to be better than before. Fuel was another big problem but I have some grand national injectors in and a Super AFC that is neato. Next my water pump was nearly shot (no wonder cooling down took so long lol). At any rate, I'm working with a company to get some rods and pistons done up and they already have a head and manifold so I can run more than 6lbs without having to worry about throwing a rod or anything.

What turbo do you have? Any HP or 1/4 mile stats?

SPEC's are on the link I put up.

1/4 are depressing but that gives me motivation to fix the problems. It'll be interesting to see what all changes happened when I fixed the big exhaust leak between the downpipe and the turbo itself.
