You will get answers from everybody. Not just those with FI. MAP's kit with 1100cc injectors and dw65 pump and their oil pan is $5800. That kit is 304 stainless which is the best as far as resisting corrosion. You can get cheaper kits and run less boost. If you keep the torque under 250 lb-ft(IIRC) your clutch should hold up fine. Intercooler and base tune are included. You can install it and run it. It did make around 300 whp on their car which is double stock.

$1800 on exhaust? Was that headers and all? If so, I would do a supercharger with the OFT for tuning. A turbo kit will eliminate the headers. If not then what did you buy for an exhaust? You think 12k is a lot for a shop to install a turbo kit yet you spend 2k on an exhaust?

Disclaimer: I have not yet put a turbo kit on my car, but have everything pretty much spec'd out. I'm just waiting on saving up the money.

There is simply no need for 1100cc injectors if you're aiming for under 300whp (which is almost double the stock hp).

Look at the reasonable kits, and also read up on what you ACTUALLY need to hit 300whp. It's not rocket science, and you don't need to spend a fortune, but it definitely won't be a $3000 total deal.

I used the 1100cc injectors in the price as that is what they have a base map for. Are they needed? No.

The turbo setup on ken gushi's frs uses the stock fuel system

Bigger is better bro!

well 1400 + 200.00 in shipping took two months to show up, Sounds like a beast though! Quicksilver Sport, heard of it? Jesse@JDLAutodesign I like the numbers and the price!

Wowwwwww this thread may single handidly have the worst info available.

1. Kits come with intercoolers.
2. The majority of the cars I have had stock fuel systems or they had upgraded fuel systems for no reason. I have done well into the 300's on e85 with no fuel upgrades.
3. 12k? Shit my setup cost around that. And that includes the brand new engine I bought from subaru and the forged internals I put into it.
4. The stock clutch is pretty damn beastly if you aren't drag racing. Note my hp/tq in my signature from my old setup on 100% stock exhaust and clutch... And this was on the lowest reading dyno I have ever used in my life.

Let me pm you my number and I can give you some unbiased opinions on what you could go for.

[CoupedUpSubie]

I was not familiar with them. Looks like you paid a $600 premium for a 304SS exhaust because it is made in the UK.

Remember, these engines are not giant air pumps like the v8's you came from. It takes more then intake, exhaust and a programmer. Those mods plus a throttle body spacer make a 03 Chevy 1500(2wd) run a 14.7 sec quarter. Instead of a TB spacer, the Crawford power blocks on the FA20 with intake, exhaust and tune would probably put a 86 in the same range.

Is everyone missing the part where a shop is doing the install? Depending on the kit, 3500-6000 depending on make, dyno time, labor, possible clutch. There are a lot of unknowns when given just a number. Maybe the shop is going to build a turbo kit for him.

[Shady195]

That to me sounds like a number for a custom fabbed setup, not a drop in and go kit. I would expect about ~$800-1000 in labor for a shop to do the install on a pre-fabbed kit figuring $75-100 an hour depending on the shop, not including a custom tune.

$3500 for SBD w/ E-Tune....and with Open Flash Tablet (During the Promo Giveaway)

Can't beat that deal, period....

[midnight23]

How much power are you looking to make? Evasive runs or ran a special for the greddy kit installed and tuned for 6200.
