How good are you mechanically?

IF you can work on cars I would peice together a t3/4 Turbo kit. bitterchild over on the zine could prolly set you up with something.

You will need a manifold,turbo,dp,all coolant/oil/whatever lines, software, injectors, MBC .. and more. and get a Southbend DXD clutch... it will be nice...

I think bitterchild may be able to tune seomthing for you as well...

let me know !

thanks guys but im not donald trump and dont have an extra 5 and a half grand. that kit has been in my eye for quite awhile i jus cant spend that kid of money. im looking more to spend like 3.5 to 4 grand including the clutch and any other needed componenets. wat about now? and if ur asking can use a wrench, the turbo work is no problem, obviously i cant tune the ecu tho. ps i already have apr 93 octane chip, milltek turboback exhuast, hyperboost dv, and an evo cold air.
