first off go to ebay and buy this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...item=1813185656

i think thats about the cheapest ive seen a turbo selling for.

then youll need a manifold, downpipe, wastegate, intercooler, blow off valve, and piping.

id recomend you get some sort of fuel managment system, as well as an S-AFC, or other engine manigment system.

after anthony (Curtas) and i get through building ours well probibly post a guide about how we did it, as well as problems we ran into, etc...

Oh yeah, big guide and list of problems. Fittings are the worst part, especially if you buy a turbo off a factory car. If you just buy a Turbonetics new, I'm sure they tell you how to connect everything.

I've been trying to throw together a "how it's going" webpage for the turbo, but just haven't had the time.

You can do it, and do it inexpensively (if you consider $2k inexpensive), but it takes research and patience.
