I was wondering if anyone could help me find some good turbo kits that you all see to be reliable. I can't find anything under 2 Gs besides the ebay turbos. I know that there is a turbo on a budget thread, and yes I have checked it out. But ua, i just wanted some help finding a couple goo turbos, and has anyone had any luck with a ebay turbo? ( please don't reply if you are gonna flame ebay turbos, i have heard it all.)

dang, i have been looking at the turbo on a budget, how much more would that cost to get installed as opposed to a bolt on kit i would buy off the internet?

More than it's worth. If you are planning on turboing your 420a, keep reading up about it until your eyes are bleeding. You will need a big understanding on all the components needed and why they are on the car.

Aertssab13 · 07-09-2008, 04:27 AM

so if i am gettting it installed through a shop i need a complete kit?

Or you could piece one together yourself. Buying all the parts in one big kit can save you a hassle, but maybe not money. And I also have a feeling that if you just buy the kit and have a shop throw it on you will gain little understanding of what is in your car and how it works.

Aertssab13 · 07-10-2008, 03:59 AM

but what i was aking is: would it be more expensive to get installed if i have a pieced together set as opposed to a one-in-all kit.

kandyinmyvan · 07-10-2008, 07:28 AM

Don't see why it would make a difference.

totaleclipse_05 · 07-10-2008, 09:31 AM

Don't have a shop install it for you. If you do that, you won't know anything about it if something breaks down the road, which it will. Not to mention it will probably cost almost as much as the kit in labor. If you want a turbo but don't want to put in the work yourself, sell it and buy a GST or GSX.

or a 1g tsi :-)

Just dont do it..... people that don't understand how it all works and don't want to go through the trouble of putting it all on and inderstanding it shouldn't really think about it. Just buy a car that is already turbo. That will save you alot of time and money in the end.

X2. i read about turboed 420a's until i went blind. theres alot you need to know and if you dont you could end up liek me and cracking a ring and rebuildin your motor for 3k. If you wanna learn and not half ass it turbo it and read. if not go get a gst/gsx

You all don't understand my situation, i can't sell the car, i want to turbo it... I have never done any major engine work, so i would rather pay the extra money then fuck up my engine. I started the thread asking peoples help finding kits, it is now all about how i should by another car. Just need a little help finding kits please.
