fast, cheap, reliable.
choose two.

I don't know what your metal fabricating skills are, but if you are asking a question like this, i am guessing not enough to make your own turbo kit.

 

pretty sure he is referring to piecing one together to your own liking instead of buying a "kit"

those links are just from the FAQ, but try looking around the forced induction forum for h22 threads. You are sure to find information there, even if it isnt h22 specific.

Hahaha is that the exhaust housing by itself? Ebay doesnt even sell turbos that cheap lol. Dont buy that 80 dollar turbo K? But yea its not hard to piece together your own kit. Just look threw the threads that 98vtec kindly posted for you and you will find everything you need to do it.

 

okay heres the store on it it was in a gti and it was wrecked and the dude told turbotecnoics it was falty and his was still underwarnty so they sent him a new one it my feinds and the only reson he wants 80 for it is because it cost him that for shipiment. like its brand new t4 its a steal realy but i need to know about all the other pricing like pipeing manafold fuel pump ect.

 

well then yea it will be way cheaper (if you kno how to install it yourself)

That should do it.

 

buy the turbo, turn around and sell it... /thread
if you're planning to go boost eventually, keep it and slowly piece the kit together..

 

thanks (to some of you)
