in that case, 4,000 minimum for a decent setup with tuning

4k? you guys are nuts. If you take time to get good deals, and get some used/ebay parts (some are ok, like intercooler) then you can do it for way cheaper.

Im about done turbocharging my ls and im around 2k to 2250 i think, including a chipped ecu and tune.

I'd say 2250 might be doable, but posts like that are much more constructive if they are itemized like some of the other posts above, instead of just throwing out a figure for the total.

its really a much better idea to figure out what you want and which engine is the best for you to work with. If you go into a project with just an overall cost youll be overwhelmed quickly. itemizing and setting a budget for individual parts or for sections of parts is much more realistic (ie-im going to limit myself to &lt;$2000 for my bottom end etc.) i find that to be much less intimidating.

you guys dont realize the little nick nacks that are involved in building a car. those will always bite you in the ***. you can make a list of the things you need but there will always be more.

list, that you have
motor
turbo
i/c piping ect, ect....
total invested without labor cost and fabrication

15-20k in the motor setup alone

you ask how can it be? it just is....

motor to trans,turbo to manifold
i/c to piping
axles to clutch
inernals
manifolds
tb
wiring
fuel sys
belts
clamps
piping
oil
gaskets
bolts
pans
welding
fabricating
time!
seals
misc materials
cleaning agents
lube
sealer
mounts
brackets
cables
hoses
fittings
coatings
assembly
teardown
ups downs
and no sleep


should i keep going?
