I want Turbo but all I see is $6000 kit. So far STC Turbo is only cheap one I have found at $ 3900 +.
Any one here have turbo ? Tell me all about it.

The cheapest or least expensive turbo kit is not always
the best.I know from experience that a turbo kit will take
longer and be harder to install than any supercharger kit.
Also plan on getting a good tune after your turbo kit is
installed if it doesn't come with a tune.I never heard of
the turbo kit you are talking about.
I like this twin turbo kit alot better though.

just buy the turbo then build the rest of the kit. building it yourself is the best way to go. As long as you have a friend who can weld its really cheap. there are companys who sell custom piping. my friend who has a 97 f150 that he made into a lightning clone priced it all out and it wasnt more than like 700 for EVERYTHING then a twin turbo setup is like maybe 1000 so.

Right here!

Fabricating your own twin setup would be out of the question for 99% of the mustang owners out there IMHO. Its VERY VERY VERY difficult to do, unless you just dont care and throw everything together and mix/match parts. We have 30 hours on the headers alone lol....you wouldnt believe the part you have to buy.
I think I have already spent around $4500 in parts ALONE.

IMHO the best kit to buy is from www.turbohorsepower.com . Its mounted in the engine bay so it doesnt have the oil drain back problems of the HP turbo kit. I think its $7000.

If your going turbo, DONT GO CHEAP....if your looking to spend <5000 then go supercharger. Otherwise your asking for trouble with cheap parts.

Almost....the turbos creat an exhaust restriction. Thats the only power they rob.

Yeah you can. You need a draw through MAF and a tune. But honestly, if the whole 400rwhp thing isn't good enough for you - and you just GOTTA have a BOV pshh...go buy an SRT-4 lol
