HI,
You are going to catch a lot of ---- here for inquiring about turbo kits. This is not what we do here. We avoid ripoff kits by piecing together our own. There are plenty of resources here. The search is down but if you go to www.google.com and type in the follwoing: what you are searching for site:www.homemadeturbo.com
you will be able to find alot of good info. Check out the turbo projects in the toolbar to the left <--.
You will HAVE to upgrade your fuel/ignition if you want to construct a safe/reliable turbo setup.
If all this seems too hard, you will probably end up buying the lame *** Greddy turbo kit, but even this involves some minor electrical work. Most of all, DO SOME RESEARCH before asking questions like this.

so. you want to keep PS and AC. and you dont want to replace the ECU or injectors or fool with a lot of wiring, and you only want about 50HP.
this is going against everything we believe in here at home made turbo.com....but you sound like your looking for nitrous.

no matter what kit you buy from a retailer your going to spend 1500 to 4000 dollars and none of them in my opinion are worth the money u pay they are overpriced just researched and piece one together or buy a used kit from someone
