        That depends on if it's stock, mileage and how well it's built if it isn't stock. There are a metric butt-load of factors that come into play when asking that question.

                Sooooo ive been talking with my friend about a turbo kit for my van

                I put an overbuilt transmission in it already and ive decided to keep going with the 3400

                Looks like by spring you guys might see the worlds fastest 3400 van

                Prolly using a borg warner 60 to 62mm 2.5 downpipe and 3500 exhaust manifolds soo far

                Oh and btw it will not be rear mount! Were going to get a smaller coolant resevoir or make one

                      Yes thats the same way i feel hahaha

                      Hes actually thinking about making a kit for the U-Vans!
                      Pretty exciting!

                      So were thinking 300-325whp should be easy
                      He keeps texting me "turbo" lol

                        A van with that kind of power sounds like the kind of thing that only gets done on Gran Turismo or Top Gear. Definitely sounds like a fun project!

                          hahaha ill let you guys know what happens as it unfolds but right now i need a fuel filter and a retune

                          next mod is Tubular Control Arms and Sway Bar for the front... i dont know how im gonna stiffen up the rear but im sure ill figure it out
                          van handles pretty darn good with the agx's and zzp lowering spring tho

                          i litterally cant wait for more power this thing needs it!!!!

                          anyone know if chaging the shift points makes a difference on 3400's? is there any more power beyond the stock rpm limit?

                          thanks

                            so its set for this spring

                            i found someone to do me a turbo kit for the van!
                            also this will be a production kit which means after we get all the number and tests done anyone can buy this for a U-van (silho,venture,aztec,montana etc)

                            we realize we have to move the coolant resevoir but other than that it looks extremely straight forward and easy to do lots of room after the bottle is removed and replaced with a smaller bottle setup

                            this is gonna be awesome!!!

                            300whp here i come
