First of all check out your engine to see if it has good compression. If your engine is bad there is no point to even go ka-t until you rebuild or get a new engine. Depending on how much work your willing to put into the car and how much knowledge you have will greatly determine what parts you should buy as well.

do you know what kinda turbo you want?How much money you want to spend?What kind of power do you want to make? lookin to drag race, auto x, or drift with it? because depending on what type of driving you do will determine what setup will be good for you.

To help you get started I guess ill list my setup

well i want kinda cheap like 1200 or sumthin but yea it has good all that. and i dunt kno yet. i do drift but not all tha time.

[WDRacing]

With a budget like that you're going to have to use EBay parts. Just becareful...some are prone to failure.

well wat if i buy lik a 800 doller turbo or sumthin and juss buy ebay piping and an actual intercooler?!? would that work?

[480sx]

You need a LOT more than a turbo, intercooler, and IC pipes for a turbo kit man.. Please, do your own research.

Buying an 800 dollar turbo with a 1200 dollar budget is retarded.

[x Too Fly x]

well yea i kno but i was just wondering if i could. that one guy said he payed 1100 to turbo his KA. and yea i kno i need more stuff. im juss tryn to find out. thas y i posted this forum!

[moulton712]

just wait till some one is parting out their car. i got most of my ka-t parts for $350. turbo, turbo elbow, down pipe, piping, intercooler, 370 sr injectors. etc.. the t25 had no shaft play and had about 50k on it. just look around if you want to do it for cheap. u don't need to spend $800 on a turbo. unless you have more money to back it up. just look. i was going to give myself $4000 for a motor swap, but i found this deal and i'm going ka-t

[shimizu_17]

for 1200 bucks you could go the popular T25 setup. Its cheap and effective to a extent.

That should be around the 1200 and get your turbo. Not much room to grow but if thats all your willing to spend thats about what your going to get realistically.
