Bad link, FYI.


Long story short, you've got lots of reading to do before asking basic questions.

for a good turbo set up your going to be looking at around 6k installed + tune. possibly more depending on what components you pick and if you want over 350fwhp. on top of that a built engine to take more then 400fwhp will run you another 4k or so fully built. then of course you'll shred you auto tranny left and right. either you go 6th spd conv. or a build an auto tranny either one will run 2k+ or 4k respectively. please correct me if i'm wrong.

search.

edit: why drop a ton into a stock(i assume basically stock) 4th gen? if you have the dough to drop buy something nice. sell yours and buy a better car(g35/350z/TL/etc) or sell yours and buy a modified 4th gen max with a form of fi installed. it's cheaper in the long run imo...i'd do a 3.5 swap before i turbo'd a 4th gen...for obvious reasons...

Not necessarily. As if the 5-speeds are invincible

far too basic a thread for this section. there is tons of info posted on this site about auto trans upgrades, including the one that is right below this one on the first page...
