If you are talking 00-01, you could always SC it. http://stillen.com/Sportscars_detail...id=3159&page=1

Yes the VQ30 can handle boost, for more information and to decide between TC and SC, go here and read some of the Stickies:

Btw, if you're asking how much it is to have a turbo kit installed, I hope you also have the know-how to troubleshoot and maintain it after the install. From what I've heard, you can't just install it and then never touch it again. For a SC maybe, but not for a turbo. Ya might wanna do more research on that.

engines are strong enough to handle boosts. Price will just depend on how hard you look. you look deep enough and take your time, a good deal will come.
