I am jumping in late here, but turboing is not all that cheap unless you do a lot yourself

 

My parts (just from memory, I have never added it up before)

 

Exhaust manifold $50

 

Intake manifold $350

 

Intercooler $200

 

Cooler piping $200

 

Gas carb $350

 

Other gas stuff $200

 

Turbo $900 (Garret)

 

Ignition $400

 

Exhaust $1500

 

Waste gate $350

 

Fittings, hoses and stuff around $400

 

Engine "reco" $400 (already had a good cam and lifters)

 

Auto $500 (500 HP kit, full manual valve body) + $300 for the auto and stall to start with.

 

Probably more things there.

 

But is reliable and is plenty to scare me.

Yeah it is finished. Only running 7psi, but is still pretty good and I don't plan on changing it. Should do some time.Still haven't fixed the gaurd though, haha.

 

Yeah, I know. Nope, it is mild steel. External wastegate and cat made it more $$$. Probably should have done it at home, but they did a pretty good job. No idea about tge power.

 

I have thought that about the mani. I run the 4brl as it is easier to mount the carb to.
