Ok, i can do it....but do i want to do it? I can start right now and by christmas end up with all the little extras.....but is it worth it? I mean it's just an ST, but how badass would it be to have a 200hp ST? I think it'd be sweet specialy with a 5-speed. What kind of turbo's should I look at? Aint no thing to get it in my car cause i have a garage to work at. But should I even think about doing it? better yet is it truelly possible to just get the turbo in a running for 2000 or less. I'm not talking about the controlers and timers and injectors...those come for christmas. So let me know what you guys think. Anyone wanna help lol?

I think the best thing to do would be find a spare 7AFE and rebuild it with good internals and then turbo that. I think I'll probably have to do somethine like this because by the time I can afford the project I'm gonna have like 200,000 miles on my car. By doing it this way, your car wouldn't have as much down time and you'd have an engine that's a lot more reliable.
