Actually that's a fairly small post. LoL. What are you looking for? A complete turbo kit? Just the turbo? Good place for a manifold? You going to piece together your own kit (ie Custom)?

Re: where do u guys get ur turbo? (dniedacess)
As far as kits go...I would go with a RevHard kit. I know there are a few guys on here who sell them.
I am piecing my turbo together and it's not as hard as you would think. I would much rather go that route since some kits come with certain parts that aren't that great.
If you want a list of parts you need to piece together your own kit, I can email you one when I get home from work in another long 8 hours.
