woops i'm retarded https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png that's an expensive turbo kit! you know you could build your own for like 1/2 that..... you work at a machine shop do it up!!!!

I pieced together my turbo setup for around $2500 and that included ceramic coating on some of the pipes. If you go this route be prepared for some headaches in the beginning. The thing I didn't like about kits is:



1) the good ones are way over priced.

2) The ones that are reasonably priced tend to use "bottom of the line" parts (which is why they are reasonably priced)



If you are pretty good at working on things you can by top of the line parts and put it together yourself and in the end it will cost you about the same as buying a cheap kit.

I agree. I paid about $1700 for my turbo, wastegate, and manifold. The oil lines cost me about $125 to do in SS braided hose with AN fittings. The downpipe isn't the greatest, but it works...for now. I also paid about $100 for my turbo to manifold ghasket and v-band clamp. So we're talking about $2000. If you don't want to buy a manifold then you can make one for about $100 in parts.

See, I don't know **** about turbos, so I don't think that I'd like to peice everything together. Trust me, with my luck, I'll **** something up.

Then learn. THat's what I did. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

if 13BAce can do it well you know the rest https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Ray has some nice KKK turbo kits. I have his Stage 2 and love it. Out of the HKS and Blitz, I would go with HKS. Their kits are impecable. They leave nothing out and everything is top notch and you won't be shorted one little thing. The Blitz kit is a KKK turbo also. You may want to look at the HKS T04R kit. It makes a lot of power and a good combination of response as well.

If I had to do it all over though, I think I may have went with Innovative Turbo. They are "THE" place for turbo's. My friend just got a T-72 dual ballbearing for his Skyline. The thing is an absoulte beast!

Good luck with your choice. It all comes down to personal preference on what kind of power and response your looking to get.

Peace,
