buy used turbo stuff, but brand new turbo....
so far i've spent
hondata s100b(pending, for my exhaust)
$700 intercooler and piping BOV and wastegate with clamps
manifold is probably goin to run me in the 300 range...
turbo (thats i want 700)
and then misc. stuff
new exhaust run me in the 200 range
tunning 300-500
personally if u buy slightly used stuff, u'll be in the mid 2-3gs
but u'll want more like LSD and built motor, and so on...
i'll be running my setup on a stock motor (with 140k) dont kno how long its goin to last but at 12psi i should make right over 300hp with tunning...when i blow that up, the built LS is gettin dropped in...
the longer my first motor lasts, the better the 2nd will be
