    Ebay turbo kits are known to be not so great, as in, if it even goes together, and boosts, the turbos are not the best, they are usaully not even balenced. You will spend more, making parts fit, and remeber you will need to overhaul your fuel system as well. If you want to go turbo, talk to pace on here, he will be able to help you out, alot.

      I was looking into a turbo kit a while back, and Pace gave me a good price estimate, and anyone who has had work done by him can vouch for his work and attitude. Send him a PM, he'll hook you up!

          I think some of the things on ebay are definitely too good to be true. But, like everyone else has said, our sponsor on here -- Justin -- can definitely put a package together for you that would work.

            You get what you pay for...ask yourself what a single QUALITY turbo costs, and then look at this package...

                      Theres all kinds of things you need to look at. And thanks all for the referral. That kit would need alot of fabbing. Those turbos i wouldnt use!

                      Other things to look at:
                      - what are you doing with the car?
                      - whats your horse power goal?
                      - highly recommend Intercooled.
                      - You will need new fuel system.
                      - is this fuel injection or carb?
                      - You would not need twin turbos.
                      ill tell ya right now force induction is expensive to do it right!!
                      but it is very fun!! FOR SURE...

                              IMHO, build the 383 right and skip the turbo...cost would be nearly equivalent with more reliability...
