I wanna know what's a good turbo kit and what all will need to be changed if I do turbo my car like injectors, fuel pump etc. if you could help me out that would be grateful

There are tons of kits with tons of info on there. Look around the forced induction threads and read read read. pretty much all your questions have detailed answers.

Depending where you are in Texas I'm sure you could find the Facebook page and ask to ride along to help you decide too.

What Facebook page?

Geez if he can't find a Facebook page or info on FI when posting in the FI sub then this could be another interesting build but I will play.

Do you know how a turbo works?
What are your power goals?
Why are they your goal?
What are your plans for driving the car?
How capable are you of doing your own work?
What have you done to the car already?
Can you afford to have the car down for long and sometimes unexpected periods of time?
And the biggies - What is your budget for install? What is your budget for maintenance and repairs?

Well without all that info what is a "good turbo"?

Although even with that info there will still be 386.62 different and conflicting responses that will leave OP more confused then when he started.

There should be a form to fill out with all those questions before anybody is permitted to post the weekly "What is the bestest turbo" thread.

JK Tcoat. I agree with you. Just having some fun.

I've been on here near two years researching (Slow learner) and these posts still make me

I know it was a joke damnit. I am not mad for crying out loud. Why does it bloody well seem people think I am mad all the freakin' time!

I guess irony (intended for humour) and black sarcasm (intended to be hurtful) are hard to distinguish in print. I knew it was irony so I am happy.
