What would it take to make your own turbo kit? The honda guys around here are doin it, but I can't figure out how. So um.... yeah anything would help.

it would take about as much to build your own, as to have a mechanic do it.

More knowledge than you've got. Seriously though, if you want a turbo, either spend about a year learning the intricate mechanics of turbo systems, or buy a kit.
