Hah. The car isn't even broken in and you want to add a turbo? What, praytell, are you trying to accomplish? You appearanty have the 4 cylinder 5-speed. EX model, w/o leather is about 22,000. For parts, labor, and time to modify a turbo to fit your engine (since they don't have one yet) will cost about 5 grand all together. Now, you will yield mabe an extra 60 hp, so that puts you at 220. 220 hp for 27,000. Hmmm..... you can buy a six speed V6 with 240 hp for 26,500. With many more features than your model, much better suspension tuning, and some decent rubber. Shoulda thought about this before buying what you have.
and good luck gettin the V6 six-speed. most dealers are only getting 1 of them. the dealer i bought my car from is getting 4 of them and all 4 of them are already sold and they dont even come in for 2 more months. and $26,500 would just be leather. its $29,300 fully loaded
