ouch

 

Good luck trying to do everything for $2500. it all depends if you are lookin for used or new parts. you can save $$$ by not buying a welder and high flow cat. a DP usually costs about $300 and can be made to bypass the cat. what car is this for and what motor?

 

Seriously, if I added up the TOTAL cost of EVERYTHING I ever bought for my car aftermarket wise, it almost totals up to 3/4 cost of the car when I bought it new... try not to think about it lol

 

its for a 94 integra LS...bone stock...(in the signature)...and im welding my own DP, IC, charge piping, and all the exhaust pieces...spend $300 to save way more than $300...thats how i see it...and im from NJ...i need a cat or i def. wont have a chance on emissions...

 

What welder are you(or did you) go with?

 

i havent bought one yet....im gonna get a lincoln one for about $400...its my birthday present

 

i just spent a little over $3000 on my setup

I spent more than this.

I spend $1000 bucks just on gauges.
I also ended up getting a Quaife
Connecting and transition piping and hoses ex $300
Hondata was pricey too.

Overall, it looks about right though.

Goodluck

$185 Exhaust piping
$80 High Flow Cat
$115 Turbo muffler ( do without this crap, run your stock ehxaust, stock cat, and run a Mccord cutout ( 105 + tax n 10$ shipping) and get a Y pipe from summit racing ( 30$) no need for exhaust. 30 WHP gain over stock exhaust ( i dyno proved it!). save yourself about 200$ there.

$300 Welder - this is always nice to have to do side jobs etcc. its not actual part of your turbo stuff .. but i guess coudl be under it ..
$350 Clutch 300 shipped for hyper clutch from camp1320.com go search username under that. and itll show tom's specials
$50 Boost Gauge 19$ for a spearco boost gauge from camp1320
$50 A/F Gauge (bull **** dont even need it)
$120 EGT Gauge ( nice to have but not absolutley necessary, if you gonan tuen on a wB o2 thats fine just do without it )
$30-50 Cluster for Gauges
$100 Fuel pump ( not needed again . 440's do fine)
$150-300 450cc Injectors ( 440's are 200 shipped from camp1320.com)

and i know i still need oil lines, vacuum lines, silcone tubing, and an air filter...where the **** did i go wrong?i was trying to do this all for $2500

look at my notes above.. if youd idnt have to buy the welder and your exhaust **** .. youc an do it all for 2200$ without the welder ... its proven cuz i just put togehter a few lists with all needed parts. since yoru running uberdata, it can be done for 2100$ and add 105+10 for a mccrod cutout adn 30 for a Y pipe and your still udner 2500 .. without the welder that is. plus you got your clutch under there thats another thing.

 

Yeah! I was plannin on spending 700 bux for a junkyard kit. $2000 later here i am and cant complain.

 

Shitty man, haha. My goal is $2000 to get everything up and running. Luckily I have a friend with a welder, uberdata burner, etc. etc.

 

My opinion is if FI was cheap, everyone would do it. If I added up all the modification costs to my Civic then add in all the things I have changed two or three times.....well I just avoid adding things up.
Besides the knowledge and enjoyment I get from working on this stuff it worth every penny.
Heck I barely have this current version system up and running, yet I'm already planning a new tubular manifold and larger turbocharger. And those thinga alone will require a decent amount of alterations to the charge pipes and other parts. Go figure?
Just stick with it, you will be happy with your efforts and sacrifices

 

Looks like your getting a Greddy kit!! All the prices you have listed is about right.. But the quality would be very nice... You might want to look at a Drag Kit groupbuy or something.. I don't recall the wideband in your price either.. Unless you are having someone tune the car for you.. Once you are done you will forget how much you paid and kick yourself in the behind for not boosting earlier..

 

it will prolly be more than that... $100 for your dyno tuning prolly wont come close to covering it, unless you have a friend with a dyno that is hooking you up

hehehehe... yup same here. i realized that just in basic turbo stuff and the buitl motor (when it gets done). is like half the price of my car itself

 

yeha thats for a decent setup! you didnt even sleeve your block that would cost you alot! man my whole turbo setup is MAD LOOT!!!!!!

 

why would you get an air/fuel gauge if you have an egt gauge? the air/fuel is more or less just a light show.

 

If you look in the Force Induction Classified, you can probally pick up a good deal, with a few of the items your looking for. That'll save you some cash, I know I did that and made out quite well. You can also take the suggestions w/ the Ecut out and gauges. Also 150-300 is a tad high for 450's, especially if you pay $300. Your dyno time though, if you can get it done for a $100 thats amazing, and I'm from Jersey so please let me know if you find a tuner, that inexpensive.

Also if you decide to go Uberdata, I'd like to know how you like it, if you don't mind.

Good Luck, and hope to see you possibly at Etown one day

 

nice but im still ahead.. $5500 so far sitting in the garage and still no exhaust, fpr, ss lines, or earls fittings. Its all worth it though knowing what you are going to be doing with all of it. Unlike a wallet breaking wedding and all I have is a ring and some pictures...oh yeah and a wife. hehehe (just kidding about the wedding thing. Id marry her again in a heartbeat.)

3500 is a lot. You did list everything though. For the DSM injectors, yoru pricing is a bit off here. You can find them in teh classifieds for 50-100 bucks. Resistor box = $10-20 bucks.

As for the welder. WHen you figure in gas, mask, gloves, all that..it adds up to a higher amount. I Say borrow a welder from a friend, or try to rent a mig welder.

Also try to get stuff used. OR even try to buy a used kit from people.

one of the guys on the board..xenocron... said if i drive up his way he would be willing to actually burn me a chip and do a street tuning session w/ me but he also admits he isnt super knowledgable....but still....i will street tune w/ him...then $100 for 3 runs on the dyno and i will tune myself there using their wideband and burn my chips to make sure my a/f is good....

As for why i need the A/F....uberdata.,..i dont trust it so i want to know if im running lean at any point..but if i can just get EGT...i will just get that...but i really cant afford to be running lean...

and someone explain this mccord cutout w/ a y pipe....i dont know exactly what that is...

 

DIY = 1900$

 

I get scared just thinking about how much i've spent....and its not even finished!
