turbonetics makes one for the s14, should work on the s13 with some modification. the turbonetics kit costs 4169.78 for their "stg1" kit, which is preset at 8 psi. greddy also makes one for the s14, it costs 3699.95. there may be a few others, but i dont feel like SEARCHING for you. as far as i know the s14 kits work on the s13, but some of the parts may need to be modified or replaced.

please keep in mind that the word "KIT" is deceiving. Just because companies sell them as "kits" does not mean you will have everything to complete a set up. This is why peicing together your own kit is much more of a learning experience and it will pay off in the future. However, what new people tend to do is peice together a crappy kit because saving money is tempting.

But what I do reccomend for you is too look up general turbo kits and see what components they include. This will give you somewhat of an idea as to what you need to peice together your own kit. You need to check out companies such as IAP, AMS, JGS, Groundzero, etc... Please stay away from SSAC.

Remember, cut enough corners and you'll end up in a circle. Best of luck, and never give up. TONS of people have told me to give up by trying to boost a car by myself with limited car knowledge, and now they're either begging me for my help or wishing they knew what I know.

It's funny, they find it hard to believe when all I say is.....I read forums.

Don't you hate it when people bash your dreams and tell you that you are incapable of doing things.

Ok Greddy makes their s14 kit which does work on the s13 but will need some modification. It is actually only $2900 though not 3700. I put the kit on my car. the modifications needed to be done were: you can't use the emanage system since the car isn't obd II like the s14. you need to make a custom exhaust piece that goes from greddy's downpipe to your cat. (I am checking into it now, but i think the stock sr setup downpipe will actually fit, so then you don't have to get a custom fab piece, but am not sure still researching it) Also, the airinx filter doesn't really fit, because the adapter flange on it is for the s14 mafs which is smaller than the s13. Other than that it isn't too bad, just it doesn't come with an intercooler.
