I need everyone's advice! Turboing this Mofo
 
Ok, well recently child support has been tryin to look for my deadbeat father who owe's my mother and I at least $200,000.00 Well I've been day dreaming that if they where to get him, and he were able to pay. I want to go the boosted route. How much at my looking at spending for the following, and what do I need? I'm posting the same question on the boosted forum. This is what I have right now.

Automatic: 145,000miles
Y-pipes, CAI, UDP, VBmod, Tranny cooler,

This is what I want to know:
Tranny swap: what parts to get, if I'm gonna need a clutch, and flywhell might as well change them right there and then. What brands?
Transmission? (what kind) I30 5spd?
Should I over haul the engine? Or just get a whole new car?
What brand Turbo or from who shoudl I get it?

I want this car to be fast, and well tuned, any recommendations would help, I'll keep updating this post with questions to whatever answers you guys give me. Thanks

No need to cross post in multiple forums.

Errr...how the heck does child support translate into a turbo? I guess it's true - the courts really do see fathers as sperm-donating wallets and nothing more.

You actually believe that if they find him, he's going to hand over $200,000. Keep dreaming.

Ya my dad owes me 20,000 and we will never see it. Believe me he will get away with paying little or nothing. Even if you get the money save the money for college.

Guys!

He's asking a question, not debating whether or not it's gonna happen..

Anyway, my $0.02...
Rebuild engine - lower compression pistons = higher boost
trannie swap - 5sp (6 if it'll work)
Fidanza lightened flywheel, ACT Clutch
Headers, if there are any for your gen...
etc, etc...

but hey, the amount you're gonna spend doing this... i'd probably go with the new 350 myself...

haha either that or his dad was a millionaire, but he also said he was a deadbeat. Deadbeat millionaires? Not sure i know too many of them, but it is possible all depending on how you look at it. Anyhow everyone has their dreams as to how to could come upon a pile of money. As to what it would take. Money talks, if you come across that 200,000 in a lump sum, i think you'll be looking more at Maseratis and not maximas. Just my opinion.
