haha its not that bad but things add up.i can build a turbo kit for $2500 in parts using all the cheapest parts around and thats no labour costs. then tuning then anything that breaks in the driveline.once setup they shouldnt cost any money unless you keep doing upgrades.or keep treating the driveline to harsh LOL

this is the price I got from Sinco customs this year.. mind you it is a V8 not V6..
SINCO turbo manifold (single)$1300
masterpower turbo $1050
tial mvr44 wastegate $480
3" downpipe $500
intercooler/piping/joiners/clamps $950

And they put a 10 year warranty on their manifolds against cracking as long as they fit to the vehical.

ontop of that you have water/oil lines (feed and out), injectors and fuel pump, 2 bar map sensor, tuning etc etc..

oh and where it says single on the manifold - that means single turbo, the manifold is 3 piece not just flipped factorys and joined with a cross over..

True dat. There's also all the little expenses you don't see coming. The kit I got from Josh was fundamentally complete but I think I spent another $800 just on little stuff, like wire, insulators, clamps and some silicone bits. Adds up. Then once you up the killawasps, you find other bits having a whinge. Waterpumps, trans coolers, idler pulleys, radiators, heater hoses. It all feels the sting, well it did for me :)

A cooler, joiners, pipe work and clamps for $950 = cheap
Master power turbo = cheap

Um, so let me throw out a few peoples cars that Mike has built turbo setup for.. Carl Ruiterman, Cole Armstrong , Gaz Whiter, Andrew Redward, Sky Zhoa just to name a few of NZ top D1 drifters cars.. but hey, of course you'd know better being a New Zealander and all... oh wait thats right your not.
