I know in my area there are a couple automotive places that will "supe up" your car, I would recommend finding a place like that and asking what they can do for you. I definitely don't recommend you just slap one on your car in your own garage.

Lastly, I don't know this for a true fact, but I have heard that with a lot of cars, if you install a turbo without upgrading other parts of the engine (i would guess spark plugs and valves, among others) that you will wear down your engine, and fast. Look into that before you buy, because this might end up being more money than you are wanting to spend on your car.

 

hey alex dont reply if you dont know what you are talking about... you dont need to do valve's when upgrading to a k04...

anyways - both of you two should go and read all of the stickies - PLEASE. there are great threads about upgrades and things of that nature

and to the OP - dont buy a kit - do it yourself with custom piping made at an exhaust shop... kits suck for the most part as they are made for the masses

 

^^^^ LOL^^^^
Flynnr is right, except i would take it to a custom shop and have them fab a set up out of aluminum.

 

what about buyin it pipe by pipe like from awe, apr or ecs tuning

but i cant find the 2 other pipes realy anywere

 

yeah buy it chunk by chunk. and replace them one at a time so you dont F things up (you will)

 

Woah.. Please read the stickies!

haha.. Plentyyyyy of people slap on turbos in their very own garage!

I am always very hesitant to post advice that is based on pure speculation. All the more reason to read this stickies.
