A good kit is gonna cost you 2500-3000 bucks
just for a pretty basic (but very high quality) setup

jkisling41 04-07-2010 09:24 PM

jkisling41 04-07-2010 09:27 PM

Turbo not hit block because block not there. They know how to deal with every problem!

Welcome to the board :) You can do a turbo build on the cheap, but you need to have a really good grasp on what makes a proper turbo setup. Usually this takes a bunch of trial and error, a bunch of reading, and cash. I would keep your eyes open on the classifieds here for someone selling one of their kits from flyin or begi.
