turbo installation price

i am looking to buy a turbo kit along with other goodies like a hondata s200b, walboro 255 fuel pump, boost gauge and pod, and a 3in exhaust. i am trying to plan out how much evrything will cost and i dont know how much it will be to just install everything i listed above...thanks

do you have any parts yet??

for the manifold, turbo, exhaust, injectors, fuel pump, hondata, intercooler, wastegate, blow off and fuel pump

really depend on where you shop. if you really know nothing about what you are doing just go out and get a greddy kit or a turbonetics or full race kit and leave the guess work out of it. you could build one piece by piece for probably less but off the top of my head id exect to pay between $ 3500 to $ 5000 if you want to do it right. that price does not include any internal work inside the engine. mechanics on the east coast generally charge $65 an hour and i believe the turbo kit is between an 8-10 hour battle, expect the worse and hope for the best

do you plan on paying someone to fix your problems too down the line?

install it yourself....its not that hard to work on your own car, but i have schooling in it and lots of practice.....:p

:nutkick: is what you will do to yourself on the self install, mainly because it sounds like you really know nothing about what you are doing.

first of all i do know what i am doing i just wanted to get an estimate on how much labor would cost...i am hoping for around 230-250 whp, but down the road i am looking to sleeve the block and bore it out, new pistons and rods, with a new valvetrain, intake mani and bigger injectors...but i dont think doing it myself is an option...i would just mess things up

I think that's what TurboGSR96 meant by not knowing what you're doing...you wouldn't be able to install anything yourself. I don't think he was trying to put you down in any way...but I could be wrong.

list your parts.....your budget and your power goals and do it in a nice easy-to-read fashion. Then help you we will.....

read me....

it seems to have some quality parts and it is a good price too...other than that i will be upgrading to a 3in cat back w a 3in hi flow cat, as for engine management i will be using the hondata s200b, to upgrade my fuel system im getting a walboro 255 fuel pump, and i have an air/fuel gague and obviously im getting a boos gague...i plan on getting it tuned by jeff evans http://www.boosted-hybrid.com/index.html .... he charges 500 for the hondata and i have enough money for the parts i listed and a tune but i still need to account for the installation of everything i listed...i will probably just end up buying the parts first and then waiting a month or two to save up extra money incase anything goes wrong but im just trying to plan ahead...and as for my power goals, i am really hoping to get at least 250whp..i no that seems kinda high but i think at 10-12 psi with a good tune it could be done...also what 1/4 times would i be around with that bc i have alot of friends w turboed cars (gsx 300zx srt4 and a couple talons) i just want to be able to beat some of them bc i get alot of #### bc i have a "honda" lol

not the greatest kit ever, but i'm sure it will do.....for that price you could get something better tho.....the prices listed are what i paid for my stuff on the top....you can get something similar if you look....

mani-200
turbo-400
dp and dump-200
bov-50
wg-75
IC-130
IC piping-150
Oil line kit-50 (DIY)


A little over $1200 and i had an IM in there too, but those prices are off the top of my head....
then what they didn't include.....

clutch-300+
injectors-250 (mine were 140)
EMS-200-500



I guess my point is, that you can get something a lot better for less.......

what kind of turbo wastegate and mani did u get and where do u find quality parts for that cheap...i saw the drag and rev hard for aroung 3gs so that kit looked like a deal compared to them...also i think i saw your manifold on a different post...will that fit on my 96 ls?

yeah they'll fit on an LS....go to www.spoolinperformance.com and check out their deals on logs, dps, and dumps...it was $575 for the package at one point. If you go on Honda-tech, talk to Phil (project dc2) and he'll set you up w/ some good deals on stuff...If you want an IC i can get you some good deals on a couple different styles...the WG is an SSAC 38mm. I got some good deals on the other parts...i got an HP Racing IM for a good deal w/ some RC550s....i also got a great deal on my turbo and Tial BOV...

If you just look around, you can find some good deals or if you want i can do it for a nominal fee...:p

ok do you know where to get an intercooler for cheap...where did you find yours?

you can find them a few places....CCA is where i got mine. They had a group buy on HomeMadeTurbo about a month ago. You can find them on Honda-tech, HMT, Ebay, and other places if you just keep your eye open....are you looking for one?? If i find one i can point it out to you....

hey, this might help you out! It helped things make better sense for me...
