I been looking for a turbo to put on my car. I found one on the STS turbo website and all together it would cost me around $6000. Is this a good price?

Ive been thinking about getting a turbo kit for my car...but i dont have $6k to spend, not even $3k. Does anyone know if i can just buy the turbo and oiling system and just keep it at low boost so i dont need to upgrade fuel delivery right away?

besides, if your going to go cheap and half *** a turbo system, i'd assume just a lid+LT's+cutout+cam is going to get you more power then a half ***'d turbo system for less money.
so..... if i were you i'd look into the cam and exhaust first.
