    Blow off isn't a necessity, just helps preserve the life of the turbo. Plus you get the cool pshhh sound lol

    But the intake and ic piping can be made very easily and cheaply. But an Ebay kit honestly.. It'll do the job just fine

        Most of the time... Everyone is agreeing with me... But the argument comes from how things are said... Lol and that's the truth... That's why its so damn frustrating half the time for everyone... Haha

              First question you need to ask yourself............. Can you afford to blow it up ?

              Looking for the cheapest stuff because you don't have the funds means you cant afford to blow the engine , unless it is just a toy car or weekend warrior food for thought

                        Definitely a good point Scotty!


                        Like I was saying don't expect a super high horse or crazy boosted car. But just to have it boosted lol

                          That is a very good point you brought up. I would love to boost my car and i think i can afford a new engine but im not sure if i am capable of doing a engine swap. I have been really thinking about this i dont think i mentioned my car has 172k on it haha but i think the owner before me refreshend the top end around 160k. I plan to think this over a little more i would really like to boost but im not sure if its in my best interest.

                            If you really care for the car and you think the car is and will be worth it to you in the long run.. save your pennies and start putting things together...

                            You want it to be able to take a beating at the track and put out some good numbers/performance.. spend some $ and some time putting it together.... want to rig up something fun real quick regardless of potential consequences.. do that..

                            All up to you. whatever makes you enjoy it is all that matters...
