Re: (White Widow)

custom baby!!!homemadeturbo.com. i parted mine for $1200. if i would have bought a kit and added fmic, gauges, btm, etc it would have cost me 3k-4k. install it yourself and save another $600-$1000.

I agree, throw together a "junk-yard" custom setup. It'll save money and make as much power as the other guys. Especially if you put money into managment and tuning.

Re: (FFgeokstar)

FFgeokstar is right...management and tuning is key. My sohc turbo ran low 13s at 12psi in my 93 hatch easily on street tires.

Its awesome to kill just about any car, including b-series powered hatchs, with a little sohc and some compressed air.
