Turbocharger.com has a starter kit for 1200 that includes TURBO, EXHAUST MANIFOLD, AND WASTE GATE. How much money could I expect to pay in addition to that to get it in running order?
I’d also like to hear the answer to this question! :read:
Make sure the manifold is for a B series engine, if not-forget it. Other things:
-Downpipe and intake/intercooler piping from local muffler shop($200-500)
-Intercooler-optional under 7psi($100-600)
-Blow off Valve ($100-150)
-FMU($75-150)
-inline Fuel pump($50-100)
-Misc fittings like Vacuum lines, check valves, extra Fuel hoses/clamps, etc($20-40)
FYI. a brand new t3/t4 can be had for $450, exhaust manifold FOR B Series-$200-400, wastegate-$100-250.
Prices vary so much cause it depends where you buy and if you decide between New or Used. Bottom line SHOP AROUND… HTH.
i tried to go to www.turbocharger.com & it was some bullshit about fluid-machinery. where on this site did you see this starter kit? i am not flaming, i’m interested in this.
edit: i see now it’s www.turbochargers.com. from the looks of the pics on the bottom (on the civic), they seem to be claiming that the kit will work all by itself. i’m gonna email 'em.
clayton, any reply to your email?
