I am sure some of you guys know me from the w-body forums but I joined this site to hopefully get even more info on the TGP. I currently have a 1990 TGP, I use to have an 89 that was pretty quick, ran a 13.9 and had a lunati cam, j/e pistons, topgun 160 etc. etc. I just bought the 90 from a guy out of Salt Lake City Utah and its pretty nice :) Its completely stock with the exception of the topgun chip, and a K&N filter on the turbo. It looks like a lot has changed in this community, people are going a lot faster now then they were 4 years ago lol :) I am really interested in the knowledge spread throughout this site, my goal for this car is a low 13-second pass, I would like to keep the motor relatively stock, I was hoping for some good advise on what turbo to upgrade to, what injectors to use, and who to contact about creating a chip specific to my cars settings. I had a front mount intercooler setup on my old car and plan to do the same with this one. Well I don't want to go on and on but any suggestions you guys wanna throw my way would be much appreciated :)

Thanks for the link the turbo stuff, sorry I have not been on much, I work retail and things have been getting crazy for the holiday season. And then when I come home my little brothers are playing world of warcraft till two in the morning so I don't get much access to the computer lol :( So it looks like Jeff M isn't the only one making chips now-a-days? From what I understand its better to go elsewhere for a chip if you plan on using a bigger turbo, injectors etc etc...?

Dane, you could get TGPilot(Kenny) to dyno tune a chip for your car for you if you go with a larger turbo, etc. Afterall, his shop is only about a state up/over from you. ;)

How would something like that work? Do I have to drive the car to him and camp out in Colorado while he does his work lol?
