Default Possibly considering maybe going turbo... sometime

So a couple quick questions. About how much does a turbo kit cost, and about what is a safe amount of boost that a B16A2 can handle. It is a daily driver.

Thanks

importparts.com, will help you with the pricing and i would say a safe boost for daily driving wouild be 8 psi. I recomend puting your own kit together though, it gives you a beter chance to pick your parts.

yeah, I checked out importparts. It was like 3200 U.S. for a drag 3 kit. Too rich for my blood.

Is it any cheaper to put together your own kit?
