www.brotherstrucks.com   |   custom Truck Parts August 2009 turbo Kit Mini Motor Power
One of the most frequently asked questions we get here is "How do I get more power from my four-cylinder S-10?" There is finally a definitive answer to that question thanks to DeKerlegand Turbo Systems. The company makes a complete turbo kit for GM 2.2L engines. This kit will bring a completely stock 2.2L S-10 from mid 18s to low 15s 1/4-mile ETs. Power to the wheels will increase from the stock 100hp rating up to around 200 hp. The kit's boost level is set at 8 psi. However, it is capable of producing around 400 hp to the wheels when combined with a built engine and the fuel and ignition components needed to support boost levels of 20 psi.
