suggestions on a cheap but good turbo
I am wanting to turbo my 99 civic si with a gsr block and b16 head. I want to do this as cheap as possible and still have good stuff. Looking for 300 whp at 10 to 11 psi on stock internals.....is it possible?
where should i look for cheap components?

it can be done (300hp) but your going to need a fat turbo and good fuel. get a t3/t4 mang. dont be cheap on your turbo. this is like your third setup isnt it? get a precision turbo, their fucken sexy.

Just get a turbonetics or a garrett T3/T4. The turbo is the most important part of the kit so invest the money once and do it right.
