Yeah I got $4500 to throw at a turbo system.

1st questionis, How much HP is probably possible the that amount of money?

2nd quest. is, Who could build me one, or should I just buy the 300hp rd kit?

I haven't been on the site for a long time (Ive been working to buy either a Datsun 510 or a Turbo Kit), so I have no Idea about anything thats happened within the last couple of months...

yeah, viper and airborne are/were working on a turbo kit. apparently it's all built and tested, just waiting to get out to more people.

but that's when the thread pretty muched stopped (with real posts about it) and that was about a month ago...

i was/am really interested in it- but unfortionatly im a little worried about it that i too have started to try and peice together a turbo kit for my car.

Well how much HP do you think I could throw down with that much money?
Or should I save up a little more?

Could someone give me a list of EVERYTHING that I need? I have my own list but i dont know if its all that I need.

Use about $40 and buy the book maximum boost. you need to read before you build. my 8 yr old sister can say she has money, build me a kit, thanks guys. u need to understand the parts and how they work and how to trouble shoot.
