Default what would you pay?

So i went to a shop today in racine and i got prices for everything that i would need for a complete turbo kit and it would come around 6 grand or so and it would give me about 270-280whp with stock internals. i don't think that is a bad price considering that it's all top of the line parts. i would rather go this way than to buy a kit that is already put together cause it would be easier to upgrade i think but let me know what you guys think

thanks
bryan

ahh ic... that looks about right... for that cost honestly you could get an amazing full race manifold/dp, so u might wanna reconsider that... im assuming your getting something like the greddy FMIC with spearco core.... umm... other than that it all seems about right... i mean u are getting pretty much everything at once... the pipe kit seems a little overpriced as well

unless I mis-calculated something, it came out to a little over $6800, so if it's worth it to gain that much hp for that much money, then go for it...all the parts look like good, big name brand stuff, so if they're a good reputable shop then the setup will be pretty solid

oh yeah, and did they say about how much boost you'll be running? just curious

Spend money on reinforcing the bottom end before you even think about boosting. Crank and at least forged rods and pistons should be #1 priority.
