expected mods
hey
look firts of all i am not looking for 400+ hp i am just looking for a little of more power and to play with the car
i am about to purchase a turbo kit with front mount inter cooler,Turbo Exhaust Manifold, Boost Controller,35mm Wastegate,Fuel Pressure Regulator and Oil cooler Kit and most inportant it looks like it comes with everything i need.
like i said i'm not spending a lot, actually i am going for the cheapest of them al,l i found it on ebay.
i am defenetly going to need fuel injectors but dont know how big, or what brand.
but last minute i am starting to backout anddont know if i shoulddo it
i just whant to know if a new guy like me can do a job like this without killing the car?

Dude your first mistake is to buy "turbo"anything just about from ebay unless it is a top 5 name brand product.
Dont cheap your way through performance or your car will go boom!!! I wouldn't spend my money on those cheap chinese imitations of the real deal, because when that **** breaks, so does your wallet!!!
I know for a fact sir, i turbod my Honda Del Sol before i got the TT, and it ran fine for a month and then Kaboom!!!! The Turbo Blew apart(fell apart) and it left my built B18C block with a hefty crack all the way down cylinder 2.
I scrapped the car and sold it for my 4th bike and have hated ebay turbo kits since!
Don't dare put that crap on your car!

Man, you are doing this all wrong. The least you are going to spend for a kit that wont break in a week (like the one you are talking about) is just under $3k. That will get you either a fast spooling t3s60 or a more powerful t3t4 50trim. This will also require you to upgrade to a REAL intercooler and clutch also. That is an additional $2k by itself. So basically if you are not willing to part out $5k+ for reliable parts, dont spend any money at all.
just save your money if you want more power. Better to do it right the first time. There is a saying "the cheap becomes expensive".
Totally differnt engines. You cant take what happens one and expect it on the other. Just like a cai doesnt do anything on a TT and you see massive claims from k&n at the top of the forum
