so youd rather spend just as much money and get 20 hp when u can get more than 100 if u boosted? doenst make sense to me

The RMF narrow has been proven to be the best off the shelf header. It goes for around $800

The sparks (SMSP copy) is $600

What's your budget?

Yeah a couple hundred more to boost, but just on turbo parts right?

Yeah I know you can put together a custom/used turbo kit but have it running safely? Even on low boost I still would be skeptical because a good fuel/engine management and tuning is still needed and can end up costing a little more doesn't it?

B/c I was thinking about this as well, and it just doesn't seem to be as "cheap" as people make it seem. Plus daily driving...
