Alright, I'm going to ask all the questions that I'm sure you've answered a million times.
What parts do I need for that, where do I find the parts, and how much money are we lookin at?
bro I've tried finding links and sh*t, places people say to check, I just get the run around, Any info is greatly needed, maybe even a how to section? Anyway at least I know it can be done. Congrats, and thanx for the pics!

um, well, i'm not gonna list what i bought, that's no fun. i went very $$, i bought everything new, but you certainly don't have to do that. a good site to check is www.jgstools.com/turbo i can answer your questions about the install too. also, i spent about 3000 up front, and i'm prolly gonna put another 1K into some more electronics and intercooler.
