Supercharger would be cheeper. Your best bet for turboing your car would be to buy a front clip from a GTO(The 3000GT's name in japan), and then swap over the parts you need. Front clips are around 3 grand plus shipping, then add labor to swap the parts over.

i'm with him, a supercharger will be your best bang for your buck on an SOHC motor. If you want a turbo, your better off either buying a TT, buying a DOHC and TTing it, or swapping in a DOHC TT.

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.

I know you haven't stated it yet, but if you're interested in S/C your stealth, talk to musashi3000GT if you have anymore questions, he's the S/C know-it all.

Re: '94 Stealth Turbo Question

instead of buying the base model then spending the extra cash on a s/c, just buy the TT off the bat.

Re: '94 Stealth Turbo Question

then save up more money, that would be my opinion. if something goes wrong with the base model, it can be just as expensive to replace/repair the items. how many miles are on it? it's probably getting close for a 120k maintenance, which is not exactly cheap.

personally I would get the vr4/tt and not look back. You will kick yourself hard when you get this wimpy 160hp car and it just doesn't perform. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the 3/s, but if you are going to get one, get the TT. It's worth it in the longrun.
