There aren't a whole lot of kits out there and you'll be looking at $3k-$5k easy. A turbo "kit" will only give you the basics, turbo, I/C maybe, EP/DP that "should" fit, enginemanagement maybe. You'll still need to worry about a clutch, gauges, etc. A turbo can be had for $1k-$2k if you do your homework, do most of the labor yourself, and use used parts. First things first, research!

I'd say it will run more then $5K for the whole thing. $1400 for a Link2 ECU, $3000 and up for a basic turbo kit, $400 for injectors, a wideband A/R ratio gauge and sensor like the Greddy unit is about $250, a good EGT gauge will run more then a $100 and you still need things like a RRFPR, fuel pump, fuel pressure gauge, lower temp thermostat (just in case), oil cooler, oil temp and pressure gauges and a few other things.

For a safe low-boost (sub 5psi) you've got a lot of extra (safe- but extra) goodies in there.

going NA is great but you'll need A LOT of money to get more power. if you are looking at hp/$ ratio, i say go turbo. go hunt around, few people are selling their turbo kit. good luck

I bought Shivs old SCC kit for $2K for there are used kits out there that are still in great condition. Hell Shiv even sent the turbo out to be checked to make sure it wasn't going bad before selling it to me.
