Turbo?? How much HP?? Options

[ToYCeLi8]

Well i know that there are different types of turboes and they vary from car to car. So i was wondering if someone can give me an average HP increase that the turbo will add? Or more specifically how much will these turbo kits add and are theyt worth it? Or do i just do the 3sgte swap???...

5 thousand dollar good lord that's a lot of money...i don't know where you get stuff done but i would shop around first... edit: dude i don't think you should have done this in 2 forums either...one of them will get deleted or moved..

I kno that a st185 can be cheaper than $5000

but for all intended purposes, it is ALWAYS better to be prepaired to spend more. what if the engine needs some parts? what if something happens when installing and parts break.

or what if you decide to put in a better flywheel and clutch while the engine is out.

it is going to be a little under $2000 to have a st185 clip shipped to your door, atleast $1000 for labor, might have to have the wiring done by someone else ~$300, then misc parts ~$500

so yeah, you can easily do the swap for just under $4000. but if you have an automatic tranny, the cost will go up $500-$1000
