that's CDM crap, sometimes it works, sometime ....not so good. also take note that the flange to the down pipe is not on the downpipe, some of the chargepipe bends will not fit if the picture is accurate, there is no engine mang. and you will probably have to modify everything. if you choose that route, you've been warned. good luck

Some advice I've seen is to avoid any no-name chrome manifolds.

You can get alot of good turbo mani's for under 700 bucks.

www.spoolinperformance.com they are a sponsor on the site.
http://www.rcautoworks.com/catalog/ also a sponsor

Peakboost has FTW kits in the Sponsor's Marketplace for 2500 + flat rate shipping which is almost everything you need for a turbo kit if you want to go that way. All good named parts. You will just need to buy fuel mods, i.e injectors, fuel pump and Engine Management.

Make sure when you do boost your car, you have the cash to tune it, if not, you will compromise your motors reliability.

Go to Forced Induction and read the FAQ. There are a million ways to build a turbo setup and you dont have to follow a cookie-cutter setup; however, if you want the ease of purchase, there are several complete kits for sale in the Marketplace.
