ok guys heres the deal...........i just got a custom manifold done for my 12a by a friend who specializes in rotary engines and he got me a great deal on all the other parts ( 62-1 garret turbo, 23x20x2.5 intercooler, fuel pump and all the custom fittings) for under 1300$. he asked me afterward if i thought he could sell this setup in a kit online for 12a's with carbs.
so heres the question, how many of you would be interested in a kit for turbo on your 1st gen or any other car with a 12a carby motor? he's making the kits per customer specs meaning that depending on what your hp expectations and your cars porting specs he will make you a kit just for your setup. prices will vary of course but let me just say that your not gonna find a kit for 12a's cheaper, trust me i tried and just ended up going to him

yeah how about im gonna be doing 400 whp for about 2000$ i dont think you can get much better. especially when that price includes a garret 62-1, custom turbo mani, giant fmic(23x20x2.5) all the fittings, and getting the motor pinned.
let me just say that the turbo alone would cost you about 800-900$ if you tried to get it on your own

HELL YES I WANT A KIT!! WHERE DO I PAY? What else is needed though? I mean, assuming someone (me) has a stock Nikki setup, what all would need to be done? I was just starting to look into this myself, and im not sure still on what all needs to happen under my hood...
