Default cost of turbo ls

If you just want a kit and arent planning on doing internals, then your looking at $2500- 3000. The more reliable and the more goodies you want will obviously cost ya.

Damn, we do have an expensive *** hobbie!!!

$6-9K If you get quality components and build your engine right. If you just get a kit, $2000-3500. Do it right.

my set-up cost me $4200. I got the kit for $3200, then I upgraded the wastegate, injectors, fuel pump, fpr, also an s-afc, and a guage pod. I guess it isnt too bad. It will be worth it in the end.

I dropped about $6100 or more in mine for the revhard kit with some upgraded stuff, exhaust, gauges, boost controller, miscellaneous parts...
BTW, if you are in the market for a kit for an LS, I have a barely used one for sale that is complete and will get you up and running...just email me if you are interested.

the end of the week i will be hitting the 15.5k mark trying to get the car up for dyno. THis is everything including the car, outer cosmetics ( one piece, slicks, RS kit etc) , the motor ran near 12k to get everything done from top to bottom including re gearing a 98 GSR tranny to good specs and LSD. Te head alone to get completely done was near est. 1800 dollars. DAMN MONEY PITS.... The kit i got a good break on. Car just went over a new make over. Suspension is getting beefed tomorrow. Waiting on HONDATA and Radiator. Cant wait to finish the damn car already getting sick of it.
