mate of mine turbo'd his 4.5 GU petrol. Used a Safari kit Big horsepower...lots of teething problems, but it is very much sorted.
Has a large turbo. Not much change out of 12K I think

yes 12000 is about right for inter cooled turbo done properly, i understand that super charge creats big over heating problems for not much gain, i could be wrong
