Default Prices For a Turbo Kit? Home made.

Ok lets say that i had all the pipeing manifolds and around a 88mm turbo and intercooler but if i had all this taken car off and the fuel system that could supot it how much would it cost for everything eles that would be needed. I dont know to much on the the FI stuff at the moment i would be haveing some eles do all the little odds and ends. After i got it all to together. But what am i missing. Or should i just stay with the gas I just see all the fast cars are FI not to many last but like mustang and all other kinds of cars.

i added some of that stuff up and to make a turbo kit yourself would be around $5000-$6000 with the T88, fuel system would be about $1500

If you did it all yourself you'd be looking at probly 1.5K more after you buy the piping, oil lines, WG, BOV and all the other misc, stuff.

Well i mean i can weld and do all the stuff like that and my fuel system on the car right now should be up for it just not injectors. But i have no idea on the rest of the matter and will be taking it some where. If i decide to go through with it. So what is this i hear about mass airs not flowing enough if i go fast will i still have this problem. Becuse i see people posting 1000 just to get that to work.
