Your car already has a stock turbo on it and check this out.. http://www.ecodetuning.com/shop/cart...tail&p=504 much better deal and so only other things you needthen areintercooler and clutch.. ATLEAST a stage 2 clutch and I recommend the racetec intercooler. I installed it the other day and it works great and fits behind the stock bumper. Should look at about 300chp or more with that kit and all supporting mods. Good luck with it. Oh yeah, and if you don't do any installations youself you're looking at about $2000 in labor.

you should be ok on stock internals still, just as long as you dont run crazy boost and keep revs below 6500 most of the time
