as for a cheep easy turbo..i know ill regret telling so many people..

garrett T-3's can be had off of saab 900's all day at a junk yard for 80 bucks..then from there..its a 30 buck egay manifold and 60 bucks in reliable oil lines..you can allso get a egay intercooler for about 45 bucks now..the piping is extra thou..so say around 600 for a cheep turbo set up good for 10 psi...

i do recomend the head,main,rod studs and at least a multylayer steel head gasket.hope this helpd a bit.
gonna have to hit you up about that lol, there are no saabs ever at my junkyards

ok yes spray is gay and i can see why you wouldnt want to turbo it. your best path is to go with high compression with your bolt on ads
