Hey guys and gals...i know this is a stupid question...but do all o' you know anyway of getting a good, cheap turbo for my car? - - - or anyway to give me a little more umph? - - - i'm not really interested going really,really fast...but more the torque, and acceleration
 i'm that kinda guy:)....the current plans i have are to install a greddy exusht and injen intake - - - but that total w/install will come to a hair under 1k - - - i have to think there is someway of getting more umph for around, or less than that price?...anyway look forward to hearing back! out-

i think you could do a basic turbo project for about 1k. there is a guy on ebay that sell a manifold and a turbo only for 500ish. then you'd need an fmu ($80) and an IC+piping(300ish)... bov (70) and boost guage (40).... plus odds and ends, welding and tuning...
you can save more money if you go for used stuff. this is of course assuming that you do all the work yourself. |
