I did some searches and even googled it but didnt come up with anything for basic terms and definitions on the contents of a turbokit. I recently looked at the add on HT for cheapturbo.com and I saw their garrett start kit and basically i do not know what it comes with or what the codes stand for where you make your decision on what to buy. Im looking to get started with turbo and i thought this might be a good way to go. Any help on explaining what this comes with and what it can do for my car will help.

Im probably gonna get flamed for this but any info will help.

If you are truely lost as to some of the terms involved with a turbo setup, look here: http://www.cse.uconn.edu/~yele....html
Its a site i stumbled across not too long ago.

Also, this previous thread was extreamly helpful as well: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=523242

read those and then as us a few more specific questions.

Hope i helped a little

 

Im looking between 50-75Hp to start and I have about $2k. Powerband im looking about mid range, if thats appropriate for every day street use. As far as putting it together by myself, what I gathered from the site you gave me showed me i probably dont have the skills or tools to do it so i would need some assitance.

Those sites helped a lot Thanks
