Default I'm boosting my Type S

So my 03 Type S is slamed, tinted, AEM CAI, and is fast as **** but I want more man. I have been researching and Superchargers are not for me, I am going turbo. All I need to do is get a good price. People that turbo'd there car let me know what you did. did you buy new?
Custom setup?
Help me out by letting me know what you think I should do and if any deals are floating around in Canadalet me know.
Thanks,

Really depends on your goals as to which kit to choose. I'm not a fan of buying used turbo kits because I've seen to many people get burned. You can never be to safe and you really don't know how well the turbo has been taken care of until you receive it.

And I don't care what anybody says, piecing together a QUALITY turbo kit is going to be more expensive then purchasing a kit.

Top of the list is definately Full Race. One Fab's wait is absolutely uncalled for and so is SCI's. There are many kits to choose from let us know your goals and budget and decide from there.

I hear good things about Jackson Racing & Greddy. Though if you ask me, it's really not worth boosting a FWD car

Nobody asked you. There was a thread like this a few days ago. Moral of the story, it aint cheap and you need to really do your homework, its been done.

have a goal in mind and research the kits out there. I started with a kit and have customized it as I've gone along. Also have a lot of money ready to drop into this. With the power, you'll have alot of suspension upgrades and internal upgrades to go along with it.
