for over 200rwkw ur looking at 10k+ without engineers cert.

an absolute basic turbo setup can be had for 2-3k but it will not last long.

this is all diy with second hand/custom made parts.

www.snortperformance.com sell turbo kits i think all u need is the know how to install and a better ecu and they should work no probs.

How much do u want to spend?

You will not get change out of $2500 for a cheap unit.
It can cost well over $10k, depends on the power you want.

Ive had 1 or 2 boosted E series as well.

Budget for around $5K for a cheap kit with dodgy fuel system. $2-4k more for a good fuel system and engine management.

$10,000 does seem pretty expensive. I suppose you get what you pay for really. Personally, I'd rather spend extra money to get a decent setup, rather than cheap out on something and have it stuff up, or not get the full potential.

No way! Maybe if you get everything professionally done and get lots of bits polished/use stainless piping etc, but $6k should get a setup that does an easy 200rwkw with plenty of room for more.

I have one, but it's currently not operational...which happens when you slam it into a tyre barrier drifting like a no0b.
