That turbo is going to be way to small for your car and is going to involve way more than just putting it on, your gonna need injecters , tune and custom headers just to name a few.It will nickel and dime you to death.My frind is building one now thats an r302 block and hes 18 grand deep already

The turbo is WAY too small. Even using two of them would still be too small. If you are looking to sell the turbo, let me know. I'm looking for two to use on my Probe GT.
