The moderators will probably move this thread to the power adder section, just fyi.

There aren't really any turbo kits for our cars. You can do it one of two ways. Either way, you will need to study pretty hard when it comes to boosting an engine. One way is to purchase the kit from http://www.bbsdesigns.net/

The other setup is to build one from pieces of the junkyard. You need to talk to the guys in the power adder forum though.

there is alot more headaches involved with turbo charging than supercharging and it will cost more than 1600 if you buy preassembled parts instead of fabricating your own.
