vtec head-500
kit-200
installation-unknow

would say about $1000

if you do the correct way, then it will run fine

Seriously though, why Wouldn't you want to go boost?
Don't say ls/v is more reliable either, because boosting on a good setup is just as good, or better.

and if you're bent on the horror stories, why not just get a full gsr swap?

Yes its very reliable and a great engine if built properly. The only horror stories are from the people that take shortcuts.

SEARCH this has been covered a bazillion times

good turbo kit is not 3k, under 2k and you got yourself a good turbo kit, if you were to search on marketplace, you will find somewhere ranging 1500. well my friend got a t3/t4 garrent with hondata s200 for 1500.
