2010 m8 le

[sledhed21]

Ok guys, just picked up new 2010 M8 LE. I parted ways with my D8 Anyways, I was wondering if I should put a few hundred miles on it before I install the Boondockers pump gas turbo? This will be my first turbo sled and want to go ballz out. What are the pros cons of installing now or waiting? Also, what immediate upgrades does it need? Thanks again guys

Imideate up grades are race gas turbo.

2010 M8 Turbo question

After Boondocker pump gas install on new 2010 M8 what type of regular service and or maint work can I expect? Ive heard these Turbo's can get finicky

2010 M8 Turbo question

how about the running boards? is it worth switching stock out to Better Boards? Ive had them on my dragon. Rob makes damn nice stuff

 

[sledhed21]

did you get race gas or pump gas Boondocker kit?

 

[meakin46]

my stock runningboards seem to work just fine, and i had the pump gas kit last year but that thrill wore off quick, this year i upgraded it to a racegas kit

Race gas or pump gas turbo

what is the cost difference and HP difference? thanks

 

[meakin46]

it costed me around $1700 to upgrade, it could be done cheaper but i got a few optinal and custom parts, and the hp increase should be around 65 horse, and personally i would go with a twisted turbo rather than a
BD( got all my upgrades from twisted) better customer service and better ideas as far as im concerned, boondocker is ok too if that what you want to do

Stick with the stock running boards. The cat's are good enough that you can spend that money on other things.

Race gas ain't cheap...
