Newbie wants to turbo his car!
Ok I'm a newbie when it comes to turbos, and I want to turbo my 99 gsr I just got it a month or two ago so it is all stock, and I am a student so I can't spend that much on new internals and such, it also has to be a daily driver. Now you know my situation do you guys think that I can build a reliable turbo setup for like $2000 I know it is not much money but by next fall I should be able to have more money if it is a must. So were do I start guys? Also I need to be able to drive this car for a few more years and if that is not possible with a turbo just let me know now and i will TRY to forget the idea.
