turbo set up for me!!!

want to add turbo to my car but not looking to go racing every weekend, but to give the Rx-8 more power for street and everyday use and maybe your occasional dusting a mustang on the highway.....lol oh and those pesky stock turbo VW Jetta's...lol. Let me know what turbo kit would be good for me

Opinions vary. Start reading the stickies in the Major Horsepower Upgrades Forum, then move on to the posts. Engine Tuning Forum would be relevent also.
Going turbo is a major investment of disposable cash. Become knowledgeable about the subject before making your decision.

As has been said already, read up on it. There's alot of options out there and they call all end one of two ways

1. They end in happiness for you because you put in the time and effort to research, read reviews, form opinions of your own. You end up purchasing the right FI set up for your application with the supporting addons that will ensure it runs well for a very long time

2. You buy the first thing you can afford and crater your motor. You then spend the next 5 years on whatever forum supports your next car telling everyone how crappy the rotary engine is.
