Default Need help with turbo.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ford-...QQcmdZViewItem first is this turbo kit any good? Its really cheap . Also I have no clue about turbo. But i hear its better then a supercharger. If i went twin turbo Say i had two 50MM turbos. dose this mean i have a 100MM turbo system? I want to push 700hp. Imbuilding a car right now. But want to see how much a turbo kit is going to cost me first. Im looking to spend 17-1900$.. but whats cheaper? id like to be able to get 175-200hp out of a turbo kit. what ever i buy. Thanks guys Andy

i wouldn't buy it, and if you think you can buy a turbo setup for 17-1900 then you need to reconsider. they cost money, and you get what you pay for. head over to turbomustangs.com for all the info you need
