There is no good cheap way to go turbo. You get what you pay for. Don't skimp when it comes to boost.

b16c = ctr i believe. puts out good numbers but isn't a very nice daily driver.

Go with a greddy kit. If you feel unsure of the dexterity of your motor get a compression check. If all is well get a greddy kit and you should be fine.

This is also another idea but unless your name is joe dirt i would go with a greddy kit. I dont believe in the sanford and son way of boosting a vehicle.

I have a Z6, have been boosting for the past 11k miles, and have 200, 195, 200, and 192 for compression, checked three days ago. Not bad for 128,000 miles, huh?
