If money is a big issue, then don't bother trying. Just for my turbo set up alone I've spent 10k that turbo ecu gauges. Thats just the cost for it to work properly. That 10k doesn't cover the new engine I am going to need when the turbo kills it, and it will, becouse that's the natural order of things.

As for building your own, there are a number of skills and knowledge you need to perform that task, if you don't already know, then you can't, and I won't waste the time to explain it.

There is a wealth of knowledge about turbo charging your car on these verry forums, check out the major horsepower section and read read read till your eyes start to bleed, then read some more.

I can sence you have done no research, a simple glance into the for sale section would give you all the info you need on pricing. A similar glance onto the new owner thread would give the info on all the other questions you've asked.

You really expect us to help you, do all the searching for you, tell you all the answers and let you sit on your ****?

Sorry but you have contributed nothing to this community and I find your FIRST post actually insulting. No manners or anything.

It may be better to buy one that already has a Greedy Turbo.

That way you can use that money to fix any problems or repair of the engine.
