the real question is is it worth 4 or 5 grand to you? we aint' payin for it

[yurchikrlg]

its not the money. just wanted to know if turbo causes problems to the car , does it break often

what are your power goals? there are plenty of daily driven 300-450whp s2ks out there. with a good kit and tuning of course. S2ks are forged from factory making the motor more boost friendly than you think. heres what a stock block can handle

thats a crazy looking exhaust manifold!?

any who you could probably build a kit and save $$. I'd say find a good t3/t4 turbo ($300), oil lines ($25), get the OBX Turbo manifold ($350, might wana re-inforce the welds), Ebay Intercooler ($200), TiAl Wast Gate ($225), GReddy Blow off Valve ($250), Custom Down Pipe ($100-250, Depending where you go & who you know), 3mm Head Gasket ($200, Lowers Compression so you can safely run higher boost), RC 750cc Injectors ($350), fuel pressure regulator ($50), && Some sort of piggy back ($200-$500),

That = ... .. . Give or take some about $2,500
