cost to turbo my ef???

[jo_king_ef]

hi guys whats a ball park figure for a basic turbo conversion for a ef fairmont with 200xxx kays ?

[b2tf]

to do it properly and more importantly reliably, estimate the other side of $6k.

Do a search.

The big thing is turbos and there is a lot of info here

[Mr. CVE]

As always there are many ways around this.
All different costs with all different results.
I have built many e series turbo setups from the base 200 rwkw setup to over 350 rwkw.

He could boost it, but how long it lasted/how much power it makes would be another story.

$500 is a joke.

You would want to have a manifold, reg and turbo lying around. They're not cheap parts, plus piping, exhaust, tune, ect.

Id doubt him, sounds like he is full of shiz!

I turbo'd mine for around about $5500.

Including:
Turbo,
Turbo Manifold,
Wastegate
Vortech FMU,
Autometer Boost Guage,
Custom 3' into 2 1/2' Exhaust,
Intercooler,
Intercooler Pipeing,
Silicon Joiners,
Hose Clamps.
And other little things here and there.

My kit is a Snort Performance/CVE Performance Stage 5 kit.

unless the turbo has been stored in the mud for the last 10 years, you still have plenty of other parts that need to be attached, usually above $2000 and people stop laughing ....like yagz said, its a joke

first i've heard of him, and if he did it he should post up pics/proof.

[Gunns]

If you want lees than 5psi then $2000, if you can find a secondhand kit. For 10psi about $5000. For 10psi + 10,000+. If you want to buy all new gear then add more $$$$$

he hasnt done it. but he has been talking about it for ages! he will probably do it after december when he gets off his P's or when he sells his XY ute

Doing it when your off your p's is a really good idea

i hope your mate isn't one of those people that say they will do it then end up just talking .

[CaRtZ]

i hope not either. i havent known him to not go through with anything yet.... except sell the ute lol
