I'm getting a loan for about 5,000 and I want to rebuild my engine and turbo my car, has anyone bought one of these kits and seen if it works alright?

i dont think you guys really know what you are getting into when you decide to turbo or swap your car.

everyone thinks "i had my mechanic swap new tires on the car and this tubo install will go just as smooth and reliable as the tire job did! " its just not like that in the real world. also, why would you ever want any "speed shop" to install a turbo for you? your the one that is going to have to live with it and deal with any issues that pop up along the way. not to mention that most of these shops dont know jack about how to turbo a celica.
