Re: craigslist find. Turbo kit? wth?
Smallcar was selling a bolt on for $4500. Chances are the guy got it, coudln't figure it out, sold/broke the car, and now is trying to unload the kit.
Assuming he still has the origional parts, that's not a bad price for easy quick power. And by bolt-on, keep in mind you still have to tap and run oil lines and such, it's not something a 12mm alone will yield you. However I bet coupled with TomsSVX's Hydra engine management, you could make some pretty power. From there you can upgrade the injectors and MAF, work your way back for the exhaust, pipe up an FMIC, and all that fun stuff. It's a good starting point though, the rest can come later.
