What are you wanting to do with the car? What is your HP/FT LBS goals? Is this a DD or dedicated track car? How much money do you have to complete all the items that a turbo must have?

I havent really thought about ultimate goals in terms of ft lbs/hp. The car is a daily driver. I was looking to put about 2K total into the turbo setup. I would like to push the envelope but dont want to have to tune every week, so im not shooting for the stars with this project. This is just to get my feet wet, as this will be my first boosted car.

I bought a t3/t4 turbo for my d16a6 and now i am going to use it whenever I get a b18a or a b18b. I am looking for the motor and can't find a good price for the whole swap. The company that you are dealing with has good quality too. I say go for the one you are looking at.
