Default d turbo

alright so i think im gonna fi my d15b7 but i wanna keep it under 1000 dollars. with stock internals im thinkin of gettin a 14g turbo, intercooler and exhaust manifold off ebay, then get all custom piping done. you guys think i can do this for under 1000?

also... im assuming i can run about 6-8psi but exactly how does it work, since at hgiher rpms psi increases, wont that kill my engine?

that's great and all, but what are you going to do for fuel management? Oil lines? Downpipe? Piping? BOV?

I don't see it happening for under $1K and being worth crap...

There's still the old saying "you get what you pay for".

I'm not saying it can't be done, but it would be... ghetto.

I'll sell you a Greddy 15g turbo setup. Most everything you need for 1k.

Let me know.

WestCoastStyle can vouch for me...its a great setup!
