Dan's 1996 Probe GT Turbo Project

I turbocharged my 96 Probe GT. It was a long project, but worth it. I sold the turbo system, stereo, and then sold my car in June of 1999 since I had bought a Mustang GT. Here are some pictures and movies of the car.

Obviously I didn't do this on my own. I had the benefit of a lot of sideline help from people on the Internet.

These include United Muffler, William Chenoweth, Ross Lapkoff, Mike Palmer, Wes Tarbox, Scott Shidel, Greg Martin, Stephen Kuenzli, Eddie Wu, Michel Fortier, Rick Wong, Brad Zimmerman, Hugh MacInnes, the entire Probe-Perf Mailing List.

Pictures of the Finished System:

I've also uploaded some movies that I've recorded:
