There is a Master Power T70 turbo with a .68 a/r up on ebay right now. This is the exact same turbo I'm using if anyone's putting together the parts for a rear mount this is a good start and may go low. I paid about $500 for mine and this one's new and is at $202.49 as I right this.

I'd bid on it if I had the money so I could do another or build a kit to sell.

Someone jump on it and make the next turbo Q Rocket!

How much would it cost to put together a complete kit? Would it be reversible such that you could reinstall all the factory parts if you wanted to sell the car?

I haven't totaled everything up so I may be shocked at how much I spent but I'm guessing I've invested about $2500-3000 in the project. You could probably do it for less if you really shopped for deals and weren't as anal as I was about the details. Still I'd plan for $2000+ to do a decent job.

I assume you've looked at my build, you could reverse it. Main thing you'd have to reinstall would be the exhaust system. I cut mine into a few pieces but you could probably cut it off in one section if you had space to store it. It wouldn't be too expensive to just have aftermarket duals installed if you removed the turbo and trash the OEM exhaust.

Sell the car! If you put a turbo on it you'd never want to sell it! Burn those bridges and boost that sucker!

Sounds like a sweet setup.. How many hours do you think it would take a professional mechanic to install?

I put it together over several months but I really only have about 4-5 days total in it. I just only had a day or two each month to really spend on it. If you had everything ready to install it could be done in a 2-3 days easy if you had a better shop setup than me. A lift would speed it up significantly.
