Boost my car?
Everyone says how you can get the most bang for your buck on a low budget turbo set up. Can anyone clue me in on how to do this? Id like to get at least 400whp out of her and I have a budget of 300 a month or so on the car. I figured maybe I could gather parts over the winter. Everyone says it. Maybe someone could explain it?

then get a cam and heads...over 400rwhp easy...and nitrous wont blow ur motor if u do it right...i had a baby cam and a 100 shot and made 430rwhp and 470lb ft of torque and it drove like stock and sounded almost stock too.If your goal is only 400rwhp itll save you THOUSANDS of dollars going that route

At $300 a month you might have a turbo car ready to start in two years. Then the power will break the 10-bolt or the trans or both after a month or two. Then for $300 a month you could have the car up and running in another 1-2 years depending on what all broke. Then the bottom end? I'd say in 5 years you could probly have a pretty strong turbo set-up running. The point is, if you don't plan to spend THOUSANDS, FI is not for you.
400rwhp is fairly easy, you don't need a turbo or nitrous. Choice #1) bolt-ons and a good size cam. Choice #2 bolt-ons and a mild heads and cam set-up. Either one will get you the numbers. Choice one is cheaper but a little less street friendly. But no matter how the power is made it will lead to spending more money. Going fast is expensive, it's making me go broke, but it sure is fun.
