Default Wanting to turbo my car

Ok here is the deal. I was gonna sell my car and buy a 95 gs-t eclipse. But The car ended up having a bad title. I was already approved for a loan. So I have a $3,000 loan to use.So I am going to keep my car and paint it; then with the left over money from the loan, selling my NX kit, and my tax return buy a turbo kit or piece one together. I have a 92 civic dx sedan with a D16z6 engine swap. What would be all the parts I would need to buy if I was to piece one together? Could I turbo my car on stock internals and it really be worth it or would I be better off just buying a header and cams and staying with the Nitrous?

You are paying for stuff on a loan? IMO, that is asking for trouble. What happens when your ---- blows up or you wreck yoru nice paint job? You are stuck paying on the loan AND the cost to fix/replace.

Again, my opinion on the matter

you'll get all your answers on the faq page trust me its all there. Plus you can search on other sites like Turbod16.com or Hondatech (dont ask question though)

I wouldn't buy a kit you can make your own custom setup for less.

Also it might not be a good idea to use a loan to buy parts I would rather use that for a car. Or buy a new engine.

Hope you find everything good luck!
