well, to be honest, if you have no clue what your doing, just go to a shop and tell them what you want to do, and fork over the cash to have the whole thing done professionaly. You can’t learn everything overnight. Do you even know how a turbo system works and what all the components do? ---

> [@ImsloIkno](#): > > Well from what my tax guy said around 2 grand thats hmmmmmmm…i dunno… Its going to be hard to piece together a turbo kit and have a shop install it for that little bit of cash. You might want to try and do it yourself. Dont forget about tuning 🙂 ---

Also from his intro thread, or cop thread, I forget, it’s not his DD. His DD is a Saturn. Keep researching. Getting all parts and a professional installation and no problems for $2k seems like a bit of a pipe dream. ---
