You need to search through the archives here and then ask more narrowed questions if need be. What all are you getting for your fogger kit? Just the snail itself? What kind of manifold do you have. It sounds like you arent getting anything else in this trade and you are going to need A LOT of added parts. Look at my sig. Thats just the beginning.

besides the turbo itself and manifold you are going to need a few more key parts. You're going to need a wastegate, intercooler, intercooler piping, BOV, Downpipe and some type of fuel management. You can probably have an exhaust shop make your IC piping and downpipe for you.

i am just finishing my b18b turbo, so let me give you a run down on what i paid for the parts you still need, just to give you an idea of what you are jumping into. Of course most of this could be substituted for cheaper parts, but not much if you want you car to last.

IC piping- $50(raw material)
fittings/clamps-$40
dp and exhaust- $355(raw material)
FMIC- $175 (custom made)
dsm injectors-$60
resistor box-$2.50
SAFC II-$260
Wastegate (tial)-$215
BOV (tial)-$210

total- $1367.50 <----- what you are looking to spend.

now you could get that way down or way up, but i would say that is pretty average for descent parts.

I think you should do some more reasearch and educate yourself before you do something so drastic to your car and wallet.

yeah what envision2teg said. better do your research before you jump into something you're unfamiliar with. i'm saying this cause i did exactly that when i first started cause i had friends with little or no knowledge with turbo setups and they led me onto the wrong path saying fuel setups weren't important and that all you needed was oil to the turbo.
